Hi folks.

I experienced a problem today building the docs set now that we have
an entity in place. The problem that I found was: (building with
--format=test succeeds, but specifying a real output fails complaining
about not being able to locate an entity.)

Joe has begun working around this by specifying the entity file in the
XML declaration.

The problem is, that when compiling to a real output format it expects
to find Doc_name.ent - and of course that isn't there. cloudstack.ent
is the only thing present. If there are no declared entities, you
never see a problem. However, publican.cfg declares the name to be:
release-notes-3.0.4, however there are a number of these, so my
supposition is that it's all designed to work with a single set of XML
documents and picking which are included for any given document
produced.

So how do we solve this. symlink a .ent to cloudstack.ent file for
each doc produced? Create a directory to house all of the XML files
and symlink them as appropriate to the document they are to be
included in? Something else?

Thoughts, comments, wisdom welcome.
