Ben, I think that a diet is needed (at least for me ;-). Do we need ent/
in the repository?
Or are they changed in any way regarding the default distribution?
If someone uses docbook with (or even without) lyx it should have those
files installed. If we need its location that can be provided at
configuration time.

Ok.

I think that Herbert is hearing so that is a good idea. Are you using
Amaya to see the resulting look?
