well, openSUSE 15.2 Leap here:

paul@weasel:~$ xmllint --version
xmllint: using libxml version 20907
   compiled with: Threads Tree Output Push Reader Patterns Writer SAXv1 =
FTP HTTP DTDValid HTML Legacy C14N Catalog XPath XPointer XInclude Iconv =
ISO8859X Unicode Regexps Automata Expr Schemas Schematron Modules Debug =
Zlib Lzma=20
paul@weasel:~$ type -a xmllint
xmllint is /usr/bin/xmllint
paul@weasel:~$ zypper se 'xmllint*'
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
No matching items found.

I wonder why zypper tells me, it's not there. If I use yast2 (GUI) to =
search it, it's there.

Anyway, DocBook XML is definitely not there, neither in zypper se, nor =
in yast2.

So why would xmllint try to download DocBook XML stylesheets if DocBook =
is not installed? I'm not a developer but such a thing doesn't make =
sense to me.

Cheers,
