thanks

Hi. I downgraded this some time ago because the libxml2 that broke
eclipse-titan was reverted to a previous version (trixie has
2.12.7+dfsg+really2.9.14-2.1+deb13u2).

However, unstable has now 2.15.2+dfsg-0.1 and the error reported here
happens again.

The attached patch (to be imported with quilt) works for me, but I recommend
that you consider upgrading to a more recent version:

https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipse/titan/titan.core/-/tags

(or ask the package to be removed if you are no longer interested).

Thanks.
