Hm. Debian Lenny currently has only one version of DocBook XSL packaged (namely, 1.72.0 with Debian-specific changes). I am sure that there are some packages that build documentation using XSL. You are right that Debian does not remap DB-XSL versions via XML catalogs: $ grep xsl /etc/xml/catalog <delegateURI uriStartString="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/"; catalog="file:///etc/xml/docbook-xsl.xml"/> <delegateSystem systemIdStartString="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/"; catalog="file:///etc/xml/docbook-xsl.xml"/> $ cat /etc/xml/docbook-xsl.xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE catalog PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD XML Catalogs V1.0//EN" "file:///usr/share/xml/schema/xml-core/catalog.dtd"> <catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"> <delegateURI uriStartString="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/"; catalog="file:///usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/catalog.xml"/> <delegateSystem systemIdStartString="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/"; catalog="file:///usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/catalog.xml"/> </catalog> $ cat /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/catalog.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"> <!-- XML Catalog file for DocBook XSL Stylesheets v1.72.0 --> <!-- --> <!-- ******* adjusted for the Debian distribution ******* --> <rewriteURI uriStartString="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/"; rewritePrefix="file:///usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/"/> <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/"; rewritePrefix="file:///usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/"/> <rewriteURI uriStartString="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/1.72.0/"; rewritePrefix="file:///usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/"/> <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/1.72.0/"; rewritePrefix="file:///usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/"/> </catalog> The question is how they manage to continue building packages with documentation successfully when DocBook XSL is upgraded. For the "gimp-help-2" package, the answer is that the "current" version of stylesheets is used by default, instead of the explicit number. If you know a package that doesn't use the "current" version, tell me its name, and I will look how Debian deals with this situation. -- Alexander E.
