Bug#585541: libxml-libxml-perl: Setting recover => 2 doesn't shut up the HTML loader

[Maik Zumstrull]

Package: libxml-libxml-perl
Version: 1.70.ds-1
Severity: normal

If I understand the documentation correctly,

perl -MXML::LibXML -e 'XML::LibXML->load_html(location =>
"http://www.yahoo.de/", recover => 2);'

should be completely silent (the page is parseable with warnings). It is not,
the parser warnings are printed to STDERR.

I suspect the error suppression flags are set only for the XML loader, not or
not correctly for the HTML loader.
