Package: asciidoctor
Version: 2.0.18-2
I ran into this strange problem while typesetting a book using
asciidoctor. Is this a problem with asciidoctor or dblatex?
The problem is reproduced using the following shell commands:
cat > tabell.adoc <<EOF
[cols="5,20,~,~,~,~,~,~"]
.Kjennskap til fristens lengde

| Riktig svar | 2+| Ikke-kjøpere pst. 2+| A-utvalget pst. 2+| Kjøpere pst.

| | 14 dager/lengre enn 14 dager | 54 | (26) | 50 | (25) | 33 | (21)

EOF
cat > Makefile <<EOF
all: tabell.pdf
tabell.xml: tabell.adoc
asciidoctor -b docbook5 -d book tabell.adoc
tabell.pdf: tabell.xml
dblatex tabell.xml
EOF
The problem is that dblatex/pdflatex fail like this when the [cols=...]
line is present, but succeed when it is not, and as far as I can
understand the line is supposed to work:
% dblatex tabell.xml
Build the book set list...
Build the listings...

pdflatex failed

A possible reason for transformation failure is invalid DocBook

I do not see anything obviously wrong with this one either. Any clue
what is going wrong?
