Package: debiandoc2dbxml
Version: 0.1
Severity: normal
Hi,
I have to say this debiandoc2dbxml tool works very well but
debiandoc-sgml's document structure has strange features of which
docbook keeps much more sane structure. For example, chapt and sect in
debiandoc must be followed only by <p> entity (<para> equivalent) in
debiandoc while docbook is happy to take section under chapter without
<para>.
Please play with attached SGML example with your tool, you get funny
result. See </para> between <chaper> and <sect> in its excerpts.
| <chapter>
| <title>How to use this 1`</title>
| <para/>
| <section>
(New tool I am working now is able to handle this gracefully, I think.
Also line format requirement does not exist.)
