I didn't know about these tools before and I am too lazy^H^H^H^Hbusy to test and compare the tools, as long as I have one tool that works for me. As I can see docbook2X is written in perl, whereas docbook-to-man is written in C. The first is GPLed, the latter has an X-like license. Maybe someone is willing to compare the tools, now that both are packaged? It would be interesting to see how the tools compare in respect to output quality, speed and error behaviour.
