Well from my current POV (moving to another host) at least, these ones *do* build correctly. > > If I look at the correct document, it seems partly outdated > > to me.

Does some of you succed in building it ? After adjusting hardcoded path no longer valid since potato.. I've come up with: jade -t sgml -V FHS \ -d ../html.dsl \ /usr/share/sgml/declaration/xml.dcl howto.db jade:/usr/share/sgml/declaration/xml.dcl:31:27:W: characters in the document character set with numbers exceeding 65535 not supported jade:howto.db:1:0:E: end of document in prolog But honestly, I don't want to spent more time trying to build an outdated doc. So, different options: A/ Can someone want to fix the sgml-howto svn to make it buildable on lenny and squeeze ? B/ sync the manual built result to new www-master (I'm not a big fan, but it's the most conservative option). Then if someone wants, update the build system.
