Doc compilation fails with a recent xmllint
Hackorum builds and tests every patch posted to the lists, not only commitfest submissions. This is Hackorum's own CI rather than the PostgreSQL project's, and it is still under testing - please report anything that looks wrong.
Hi. With a recent xmllint (using libxml version 21500-GITv2.15.0), doc compilation fails with:
/usr/bin/xmllint --nonet --path . --path . --output postgres-full.xml --noent --valid postgres.sgml
ref/pg_combinebackup.sgml:317: validity error : standalone: normalization of attribute linkend on xref by external subset declaration
state of the cluster using <xref linkend="app-pgchecksums "/> is
^
Attached a patch to solve the issue.

Thanks for the report, this was already fixed in a48d1ef58652229 and will ship
in 18.1.
