Hi,
this is the situation:
- db2latex-xsl is RC buggy, dead upstream and should be superceded by
dblatex
- There is only one dependency on it left in the archive (sarge, sid and
testing[1]), and this is cdbs
- cdbs can build its documentation with dblatex as well. The patch for
this is by W. Borgert <debacle at debian.org>, see
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=327616;msg=25
I have refined it (only one small change that was already suggested by
Wolfgang) and attach it again here fo reference.
- The problems mentioned later in #327616 by Andreas Hoehnen, the fact
that the PS documentation cannot be created, is not an issue: cdbs
does not want to create PS documentation. Moreover, the error is
small, well-known and easy to fix, I've reported a bug against
dblatex, with a patch.
Taking this together, I think there is no reason not to apply the
attached patch in an upload of cdbs targetted at testing, and after that
removing db2latex-xsl again (and getting the RC bug count down by 1
more).
And while we're at it, db2latex-xsl should be removed from the complete
archive. Note that the so-called maintainer of that package, Debian
XML/SGML Group <debian-xml-sgml-pkgs at lists.alioth.debian.org>, never
revealed themselves in this whole thing, and probably nobody cares any
more. Its other RC bug was fixed by me in an NMU and has not been
acknowledged since 10 months.
Regards, Frank
