Basically DTD validation is defined as an extra operation at parsing time. Of course people need it applied in different context, usually on a tree or an event flow, hence the --postvalid switch, but it may occasionally work differently than --valid.

[xml] xmllint: validation of XML files with XInclude-d documents maybe broken
Hello, See the file http://debian.wgdd.de/temp/howto-mimedef.xml as example. This file is a DocBook article, that xincludes several other XML files for appendices or other parts of the article. Now I want to validate the file. Therefor I ran: xmllint --xinclude --noout --valid howto-mimedef.xml and I get a lot of errors. It seems, that e.g. the XIncludes are not included. xmllint complains about the xi:include elements itself. And then it also seems to try to separately validate the xincluded files too, which of course fails for e.g. the included gfdl.xml file, because it does not contain a DTD. But if I do: xmllint --xinclude howto-mimedef.xml test.xml xmllint --valid --noout --valid test.xml everything is fine (the resulting XML file is valid). So I would expect, that a xmllint --xinclude --noout --valid howto-mimedef.xml Am I doing something should also work and not fail. Am I doing something wrong? Does xmllint work as expected here?
