?? Post vanished? / again: Calibre ODT>EPUB

Been converting ODT>EPUB for years and it worked fine until a few weeks ago. The EPUBChecker is reporting two groups (incidents) of error

- - - incident #1

error RSC-005
message: error while parsing file :///www.w3.org/2000/svg
The error appears in two files. Here is one

File index_split_515.xhtml
Line 10, col 98
Line 10 is shown in its entirety below.
Col 98 starts with "img alt ..."

<h3 class="p-p42" id="calibre_pb_524"><span id="anchor608" class="s-t"></span><div class="g-fr1"><img alt=" " src="Pictures/100000000000045E0000032C7492DD5B.png" class="calibre6"/>

This code is all from the conversion. I didn't hand tweak it.

- - - incident #2

A similar error appears at over 900 locations
Error RSC-005
Message: Error while parsing file "version" or "xml:lang"

location is Line 2, col 60
From index_split_000.xhtml

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="calibre">

but that line (and the hundreds of others) is only 59 characters long.
The code above is all from the conversion. I didn't hand tweak it.

<h3 class="p-p42" id="calibre_pb_524"><span id="anchor608" class="s-t"></span><div class="g-fr1"><img alt=" " src="Pictures/100000000000045E0000032C7492DD5B.png" class="calibre6"/>

Looking at the code, you have a <div> inside the <h3> tag. Even if you have a </div></h3> after the class="calibre6"/>, you can't place a div inside a h?, p, etc.

In an otherwise empty file, I added:

Code:

<h3 class="p-p42" id="calibre_pb_524"><span id="anchor608" class="s-t"></span><div class="g-fr1"><img alt=" " src="Pictures/100000000000045E0000032C7492DD5B.png" class="calibre6"/></div></h3>

then ran epubcheck 5.2.0 and it spat out:

Code:

Col: 98: ERROR(RSC-005): Error while parsing file: element "div" not allowed here; expected the element end-tag, text or element "a", "abbr", "acronym", "applet", "b", "bdo", "big", "br", "cite", "code", "del", "dfn", "em", "i", "iframe", "img", "ins", "kbd", "map", "noscript", "ns:svg", "object", "q", "samp", "script", "small", "span", "strong", "sub", "sup", "tt" or "var" (with xmlns:ns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg")
