It is a FAQ: there is no SGML-HOWTO for Debian. Actually, this is true of the whole SGML world. SGML people hate to write documentation, that's why they invented SGML, to make it so hard they have a good excuse. <disclaimer sarcasm="true"/> Either you dig through J.H.M's Makefile, or you read all the sparsed docs by yourself, trying to figure this out. One warning: there are *several* ways to do so, SGML is not a program but a language. > I didn't find a db2ps or docbook2ps... The SGMLtools program was invented for this purpose. It is packaged in potato, 'sgmltools-2'.
