Sometimes you need the innocent view of a newbie :-)

OK I found your patch in Github and modified my docbook45.conf file 
accordingly. No more duplicate xref in my pdf !

Many thanks for fixing that so quickly !!!

A last little remaining problem though : in the pdf generated file 
(master.pdf attached) the link leads to the first line of the first 
paragraph of the targeted section and not - as it does with the -a html5 
web site and as it should -  to the targeted section label.

I tried to open the pdf file with both Adobe Reader XL under windows and 
Linux Evince to see if it could be related to the reader but got the same 
result with both. Therefore I suspect this problem is related to the way 
the pdf is generated.

A last question (trying to minimise the significant conversion work ahead 
of me...) : is it possible to use a section label as a tag for xref ?
i.e. if I have :

=== Section 1

can I some how use the "Section 1" as a reference in xref ?

Cheers
Jacques
