Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: 1.42 XSL stylesheets break FO generation...

/ Dan York <> was heard to say:
| Just downloaded the 1.42 stylesheets today and it appears that the
| localization stuff does not work quite right when generating FO.  Here is what I get:

This is a bug in libxml (used by xsltproc). It doesn't allow namespace
declarations to inherit across entity boundaries. Daniel concedes that
it's a bug, though I think he is of the opinion that the spec is
broken in this regard.

I've worked around this, and fixed a few uglier bugs, in the last
couple of days, but my network connection has been down. It's back
now, so expect a new release this evening.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
