elbe preprocess failes due to artificial? limit in https://github.com/Linutronix/elbe/blob/releases/v13.2/schema/dbsfed.xsd

[danielbisar]

Steps to reproduce:

• create root_fs.xml
• add more than 10 repos via <url> to <url-list>

Result: Error message: ... elbe_rootfs.xml:418 error Element 'url': This element is not expected.

Expected behavior:

1. better error message
2. even better: remove the maxOccurs="10" from the url element under xml-list from the schema

Is this expected behavior? What shall I do if i need more repos?

The url-list is also used for preseeding the Debian installer during Initvm creation:

https://github.com/Linutronix/elbe/blob/4d0f93be48402e36a040824f9d7d1d72c984e544/elbepack/init/preseed.cfg.mako#L83

And there is a limit:

This is why this was limited once..

Thanks for pointing this out!

Thanks for fixing :)

I think I will revert it again (see @manut's comment).

[danielbisar]

Wouldn't it be possible to use another value for the seeding? I mean it would just need to use another xsd oder update the xml-node of the schema according to the actual limit. As far as i could see the limit mentioned by @manut is system dependend, so there is no actual hard limit to 10. And to make elbe fail when not even using seeding doesn't make sense to me.

@manut also said: "This is why this was limited once...", so is it still really required?
