can't build man pages or html docs from git source #28

Open themaddoctor opened 6 years ago

themaddoctor commented 6 years ago

docbook2man 0.8.8 and xmllint show errors in the files in /doc. For example, "!doctype" needs to be "!DOCTYPE". And there are some &lt and &gt without semicolons. Once those are fixed, there are more that I do not understand. Try as I might, I cannot get man pages or docs to build.

On my Debian Unstable system, DVDAuthor still builds OK, and docbook2man -v reports

DocBook-utils version 0.6.14 (jw version 1.1)

so I don’t have 0.8.8 yet. Can you copy and paste the error messages?

I forget exactly what happened, but I think that this patch fixes the bug in docbook2x that was responsible for the errors:

So it’s a bug in docbook-utils, not in DVDAuthor?

I can't say for certain, because I ended up building release 0.7.2 instead of the git version.
