Possibly, but I feel like I don't quite yet understand what failed exactly.

Adding "--skip-validation" to all xmlto invocations feels wrong, but I
saw that e.g. git-base already did that, so I just copied the
workaround to get the packages to build.

It sounds like libxml2 might need someone more knowledgeable to look at it.
