Description

We should autogen this package at the current version, `xmlto-0.0.29` (we have `xmlto-0.0.28` in our tree), with a patch for building with `gcc-14.3.0` that seems probably still is needed. Sources are available from a number of places, and we can get it from upstream here: https://pagure.io/xmlto/releases. Gentoo's version of `xmlto-0.0.28` builds, so we may be able to borrow their patch.

Research direction

Start with the existing xmlto-0.0.28 package in the tree and the upstream xmlto-0.0.29 release at pagure.io/xmlto. Compare Gentoo's xmlto-0.0.28 patch and test the package with gcc-14.3.0; done means the current version is autogenerated and builds successfully with the compiler fix.
