      What were you trying to do that didn't work?
      Every ST_GeomFromGML or ST_GeomFromKML call results in the same error when using the upgraded libxml2-2.9.7-18.el8_9.x86_64. After downgrading to libxml2-2.9.7-16.el8_8.1.x86_64 (and postgres server restart) it works again.

      It makes Postgis unusable with the recently published libxml2-2.9.7-18.el8_9.x86_64. It affects all Postgis versions tested on any PostgreSQL versions available for RHEL8.

       

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      • libxml2-2.9.7-18.el8_9.x86_64
      • python3-libxml2-2.9.7-18.el8_9.x86_64

       

      How reproducible:

      SELECT ST_GeomFromGML('<gml:Point srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326"><gml:pos srsDimension="2">6.34535 5.23423</gml:pos></gml:Point>');

       

      Expected results

      pocdb_gis=# SELECT ST_GeomFromGML('<gml:Point srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326"><gml:pos srsDimension="2">6.34535 5.23423</gml:pos></gml:Point>');
                         st_geomfromgml

      Actual results

      pocdb_gis=# SELECT ST_GeomFromGML('<gml:Point srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326"><gml:pos srsDimension="2">6.34535 5.23423</gml:pos></gml:Point>');
      ERROR:  invalid GML representation
