I managed to fix a part of the dependency problem. Your query should now be executable with the latest snapshot [1].

Hi, all.

I'm seeing an error in BaseX when I use function-lookup in both a global variable and a function, where the function relies on the variable. I reduced the situation to the following small query:

xquery version "3.1";
declare variable $local:lookup := function-lookup(QName("nonexistent", "nonexistent"), 1);
declare function local:myfcn() {
  let $f := ($local:lookup, function-lookup(QName('http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions','string'), 1))[1]
  return  $f('a')
};
local:myfcn()

When I run it with BaseX 11.1, I get
[XQDY0054] Static variable depends on itself: $local:lookup

When I run it with Saxon-HE 12, I don't get this error.

Is there anything I can do in my code to avoid this error?

Thanks,
Amanda
