[Bug 1552398] [NEW] sgml2html exits 0, even though LinuxDocTools.pm encounters errors

 

Public bug reported:


Processing good (valid) files works fine.  With a very small bad sample file, you can see below that the sgml2html utility (which is calling into /usr/share/perl5/LinuxDocTools.pm) is exiting zero even though it probably should simply die.

$ sgml2html  --split=0 linuxdoc-bad.sgml  
Processing file linuxdoc-bad.sgml
nsgmls:<OSFD>0:13:4:E: end tag for "ARTICLE" omitted, but its declaration does not permit this
nsgmls:<OSFD>0:2:0: start tag was here
$ echo $?
0
