Very nice to get the web reference. Had a closer look and it seem to me like the kosek input method, as defined on the web page, support all the features needed, but the /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/common/nb.xml file contain the wrong ordering in the <l:letters> block. I did no quite understand why this ordering method could not be enabled by default for the norwegian locales. Can you explain why? I would expect it to be possible to implement the docbook rules to behave correctly for any language in the world. > So from my point of view, there is nothing I can do for you as > maintainer of docbook-xsl.

I hope you are wrong, based on my observation above, but if I am wrong I understand that docbook is not flexible enough to provide correct index sorting for Norwegian Bokmål (nb) and Nynorsk (nn) out of the box, and that there is nothing you can do about it. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
