drop dependency on docbook xmlto #46

Closed gdraheim closed 4 years ago

gdraheim commented 6 years ago

The man pages generation had a dependency on "xmlto" and special docbook stylesheets. Along with 0.13.69 the man pages generation has been changed to custom "dbk2man.py" script.

The intermediate docbook text may stay but the default path should switch from "xmlto" to use "dbk2man.py". The docbook xmlto is optional, not a dependency anymore.

The generation of *roff man pages is now quite good and acceptable as the standard generation.

The generation of html man pages is not on the same level as the docbook xmlto but atleast it works.

As such the presences of "xmlto" is being detected and it is still used as the default.

Switching to the default might be done in a later version of zziplib build scripts.

the new dbk2man.py works just fine.
