[xml/sgml-pkgs] Bug#412786: expat: Mistake in xmlwf(1) man page

[Cameron McCormack]

Package: expat
Version: 1.95.8-3.4
Severity: minor

Hi.

The man page for xmlwf(1) states:

  BUGS
    According to the W3C standard, an XML file without a declaration at
    the beginning is not considered well-formed.  However, xmlwf allows
    this to pass.

however this is false.  There is no well-formedness constraint in XML
that requires the XML declaration.

Thanks,

Cameron
