Bug Description

Under vivid, the serverguide validation script gives and error:

doug@desk-dev:~/sguide-trunk/serverguide$ scripts/validate.sh serverguide/C/serverguide.xml
 --Validating serverguide/C/serverguide.xml ...
serverguide/C/serverguide.xml:2: element legalnotice: validity error : ID legal already defined

If I downgrade the libxml2 package via:

sudo dpkg -i libxml2_2.9.1+dfsg1-4ubuntu1_amd64.deb

then the validation works:

doug@desk-dev:~/sguide-trunk/serverguide$ scripts/validate.sh serverguide/C/serverguide.xml
 --Validating serverguide/C/serverguide.xml ...
doug@desk-dev:~/sguide-trunk/serverguide$

The issue might be this upstream bug report (yet the conditions seem a little different):

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737840

Note that as far as I have been able to determine, so far, the documents actually build properly.

Thanks to Ian Nicholson for this one.
