+    debian-aarch64 runner ships libxml2 ≥ 2.14 (SONAME 16) while
+    Debian trixie targets 2.12 (SONAME 2).  -5 built fine, then

+       cannot open shared object file
+    Neither the daedalus-v4l2 daemon (direct AVPacket feed —
+    libavformat used only for the in-tree v4l2request hwaccel
+    glue) nor mpv-fourier (Lua + ytdlp + mpv's stream code do
+    DASH/HLS) nor firefox-fourier (gecko-media DASH demux)
+    consumes FFmpeg's libxml2-backed DASH demuxer, so dropping is
+    feature-neutral.  Mirrors the libva trixie/runner ABI-skew
+    workaround documented in PR #62.
+  * CI workflow build-deps lose libxml2-dev for the same reason.
+  * No source code change beyond configure flags + Depends.
+    Substitution stays as PRs #76/#77 landed.
