[SOLVED] Can't `pip install xmlsec` with libxslt 1.1.30-1

I'm looking for some help to try figure out if this bug  is a upstream libxslt bug, or an arch packing bug, or a bug in the xmlsec python package.

If I run `pip install xmlsec` (in a virtual env) I get this error:

    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    In file included from src/lxml/lxml.etree.c:515:0:
    src/lxml/includes/etree_defs.h:14:10: fatal error: libxml/xmlversion.h: No such file or directory
     #include "libxml/xmlversion.h"
              ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    compilation terminated.

That's what I think is the relevant part of the error. The full error text is here: https://pastebin.com/uXRBdhY0

This only happens with the latest version of libxslt 1.1.30-1. If I downgrade to 1.1.29+42+gac341cbd-2, it works fine.

Do a pacman -Syu to get libxslt 1.1.30-2 now in [extra] and this problem should go away.
