The metalink rfc refers to an empty local in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5854#page-31
This is probably used for local definitions you might have in the default xml namespace. I think that stems from https://relaxng.org/jclark/mns.html But I must admit that I'm not an XML expert. My best guess is that it's there to allow you to define your own local xsd mixin, so either create an empty (but valid) xsd file called local.xsd or remove the line from the xsd for now. You can find an example of an empty xsd here: https://www.w3schools.com/XML/schema_example.asp Greetings, Bram On Wed, 3 Apr 2019, 23:17 David Huard <[email protected]> wrote: > I want to use the metalink4.xsd file to validate a metalink file I'm > creating.
