Description Vincent Lefevre 2013-10-22 11:47:07 UTC 
Under Debian, I get the following warning:

$ xmllint --noout --dtdvalid file:///usr/share/xml/fontconfig/fonts.dtd /etc/fonts/fonts.conf
/etc/fonts/fonts.conf:2: warning: failed to load external entity "/etc/fonts/fonts.dtd"
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
                                        ^

I don't see the point of this confusing warning since I just use the
--dtdvalid option, whose goal is to provide a DTD that is typically
different from the oone specified in the XML file.

Comment 1 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 13:23:09 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.
