Description Stefan Seefeld 2008-02-21 13:27:01 UTC 
When the included file is found via --path, the generated xml:base doesn't reflect the actual location of the file.

test case:

a/outer.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<book xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude">
  <chapter>
    <xi:include href="inner.xml"/>
  </chapter>
</book>

./inner.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<section><title>inner</title></section>

Running 'xmllint --xinclude --path . a/outer.xml' will report
xml:base="a/inner.xml" instead of "./inner.xml".
Comment 1 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 13:20:54 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.
