libxml warnings while upgrading squeeze -> wheezy

[Itay]

Hi,

During the upgrade I got many times the following warning:

program compiled against libxml 208 using older 207

Shooting in the dark I did:

# aptitude show libxml2
Package: libxml2
State: installed
Automatically installed: no
Multi-Arch: same
Version: 2.8.0+dfsg1-7+nmu2
...

I have no idea what is libxml so I don't even no if I was looking
at the right place.
And can't figure out the correspondence between 'libxml 208' and the
version number shown by aptitude. (If there is any.)

Should I be concerned?

Thanks in advance,
Itay

I remember seeing this as well when upgrading one of my machines from
squeeze to wheezy. After the upgrade however, all seems to be
well. Based on my experience, I would say don't worry about it, but I
do stand to be corrected as always.
