Description kbuchcik 2006-02-15 13:16:37 UTC 
In tree.c xmlIsID() is used superfluously in some cases. This could have unnecessary negative impact on copy-node operations if DTD are used.

Additionally, due to XInclude, in xmlCopyPropInternal() attributes will stay marked as ID, even if the target document does not define them as IDs; except for xml:id and attributes set to ID by an API, this is not correct.
The issue gets more complex due to XInclude, of whose semantics semantics/problems I don't have a picture.

Relevant mail-thread: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xml/2006-February/msg00011.html

Note that I started implementing the function xmlDOMWrapClodeNode() in tree.c to handle such issues for DOM-wrappers.
Comment 1 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 13:26:37 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
