Package: libxslt1.1 Version: 1.1.26-5 Severity: minor When using the output method xml (whether implicitly or explicitly), libxslt1.1 outputs an XML declaration. However, it does not include an encoding pseudo-attribute. Obviously, libxslt1.1 knows what encoding it used to output the data (hopefully UTF-8) and it should be explicit about that.
The XSLT spec says: The xml output method should output an XML declaration unless the omit-xml-declaration attribute has the value yes. The XML declaration should include both version information and an encoding declaration. Please be sure that when emitting an encoding declaration that you use the upper-case form of "UTF-8" (see #568347). I have not included a testcase because this behavior is trivially reproducible with xsltproc. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.35-rc5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libxslt1.1 depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcrypt11 1.4.5-2 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libxml2 2.7.7.dfsg-4 GNOME XML library libxslt1.1 recommends no packages. libxslt1.1 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
