HTML5 & XML

Hi,

All my content comes from an XML/XSL source which generates an HTML5 
document! It's fun and it works very well for 20 years in my case! There 
was no error either during validation (Nu Html Checker)! But today, 
surprise. 156 /Self-closing tag //syntax /errors!  My question, is this 
an error or I will from now have to modify all my XSL scipts to pass the 
test?

    /Self-closing tag syntax in text/html documents is widely
    discouraged
    <https://google.github.io/styleguide/htmlcssguide.html#Document_Type>;
    it’s unnecessary and interacts badly with other HTML features
    <https://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/?saved=10809>
    (e.g., unquoted attribute values). If you’re using a tool that
    injects self-closing tag syntax into all void elements, without any
    option to prevent it from doing so
    <https://github.com/prettier/prettier/issues/5246>, then consider
    switching to a different tool./
