[xmlsec] xmlsec having problem finding element with Id=

[G. Ken Holman]

Hi folks!

Today I'm working on countersignatures, and I'm having a problem with 
xmlsec not finding an element with Id= that is cited in the URI= of a 
<ds:Reference>:

func=xmlSecXPathDataExecute:file=..\src\xpath.c:line=273:obj=unknown:subj=xmlXPtrEval:error=5:libxml2 
library function failed:expr=xpointer(id('addedSigVal'))
func=xmlSecXPathDataListExecute:file=..\src\xpath.c:line=356:obj=unknown:subj=xmlSecXPathDataExecute:error=1:xmlsec 
library function failed:

library function failed:

library function failed:
Error: signature failed
Error: failed to sign file "extSigned2.xml.raw"


The extSigned2.xml.raw file is found in the attached ZIP file, named 
".zzz" to get past mail filters.

That file was successfully signed with a <ds:Signature> that has a 
<ds:SignatureValue Id="addedSigVal"> signature value.

To again sign the document and this time also countersign that first 
signature, I'm adding a second <ds:Signature> that has two 
<ds:Reference> elements:  the first one points to the document using 
URI="", and the second one points to the signature value of the first 
signature using URI="#addedSigVal".

The first line of the error message above indicates that the element 
with the id "addedSigVal" cannot be found.

I get the same message if I try to point to the first <ds:Signature> 
using URI="#addedSig".

Is this enough information to determine if the software is wrong or 
if I'm asking too much?

Thanks!
