The new system we have *does* work this way. There is the master catalog, controlled by update-catalog, then generally in /etc/sgml/*.cat some delegated catalogs pointing to the actual per-file catalogs in /usr/share/sgml. I don't know how we could really do better than this -- also, it's important to stick to the LSB and the types of standards they are working out beyond the narrow confines of Debian. -- ...Adam Di Carlo..<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>...<URL:http://www.onshored.com/>
