Re: [docbook] Need help interpreting an error output

[Dave Pawson <dave.pawson@gmail.com>]

From https://tdg.docbook.org/tdg/5.2/xref.html

Under ordinary circumstances, the xref points to some element with its
linkend attribute and the processing system generates appropriate
cross-reference text. There are three ways for the author to influence
the generated text:

If the endterm attribute is specified on xref, the content of the
element pointed to by endterm will be used as the text of the
cross-reference.

Otherwise, if the object pointed to has a specified xreflabel, the
content of that attribute will be used as the cross-reference text.

Finally, the author may specify a keyword (or other information) in
the xrefstyle attribute. Unlike endterm and xreflabel which have rigid
semantics, the content of the xrefstyle attribute is simply additional
information for the processing system. What effect it has, if any, is
dependent on the processing system.


So the error is saying there is no text to 'make hot', e.g.
<a href='#target'>Hot text</a>
