This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-docs - 20.04.1
---------------
ubuntu-docs (20.04.1) focal; urgency=medium
* scripts/update-translations.sh:
- Handle tarballs also from the package
* Bump version to 20.04 / focal
* debian/control.in, debian/control:
- Replace Vcs-Bzr with Vcs-Git
- Bump Standards-Version to 4.5.0
* New languages: af, ckb
* Translations from Launchpad:
- Syntactically incorrect Chinese translations of two strings were
corrected before this translation update, which works around the
focal build failure as described in LP: #1869814.

Title:
ubuntu-docs build failure - possible solution
Status in itstool package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in libxml2 package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in ubuntu-docs package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
ubuntu-docs failed to build during the second Focal Fossa test
rebuild:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/test-
rebuild-20200327-focal/+build/18982738
It was itstool which failed to generate the localized zh_CN pages. If
dropping zh_CN from ubuntu-help/Makefile.am, ubuntu-docs builds. But
excluding the Chinese pages is apparently not an acceptable solution.
The itstool package in focal {build-,}depends on python3. I built
itstool in a PPA with python2 instead, and in that PPA ubuntu-docs
built fine without modifications:
https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/ubuntu/ubuntu-docs/+packages
So the root cause seems to lie neither in ubuntu-docs nor itstool. I
would suspect that python3-libxml2 is buggy, but since itstool was
built against python2 in eoan, it's hard to tell if it's a regression.
Would building itstool against python2 be an acceptable workaround in
focal?
