Indeed, you have uncovered a bug in the stylesheets. The stylesheets put an article
into an fo:page-sequence, but the only template for colophon also tries to create an
fo:page-sequence. Since you cannot nest fo:page-sequence, this does not work.
Instead, a colophon inside an article should be handled in with a separate template a
manner similar to the way an appendix inside an article is handled: without starting
another fo:page-sequence.
If you want to file a bug report on the DocBook SourceForge site, that would be
great.
In the meantime, you will need to add a new template in your customization layer to
fix this problem. You could copy the template with match="d:colophon" from
fo/component.xsl, and make these changes:
1. Change the match to match="d:article/d:colophon".
2. Remove all the fo:page-sequence stuff, leaving just:
<xsl:variable name="id">
<xsl:call-template name="object.id"/>
</xsl:variable>
<fo:block id="{$id}"
xsl:use-attribute-sets="component.titlepage.properties">
<xsl:call-template name="colophon.titlepage"/>
</fo:block>
<xsl:apply-templates/>

Subject: [docbook-apps] can't compile doc with colophon
Hello, I'm new here.:-)
I'm beginning to have an intensive use of docbook. It's work fine but I have a
difficulty with colophon and I have seen nothing that would help me, even here...
So I try to explain my difficulty.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<article version="5.0" xml:lang="fr" xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";>
<info><title>Test</title></info>
<section xml:id="introduction"><title>Introduction</title>
<para>Blah blahblah</para>
</section>
<colophon>
<para>colophon text</para>
</colophon>
</article>
The doc is valid and xsltproc create the .fo but fop complain :
page-sequence is not a valid child of fo:flow
The same document with "book" and "chapter" instead of "article " and "section" is
ok (1)
I use xls-ns-stylesheet 1.75.2, fop 1.0 and xsltproc on windows
I tried to use :
<xsl:param name="fop1.extensions" select="1"></xsl:param>
but no difference.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) the same document with book work only if there is something before
colophon :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<book version="5.0" xml:lang="fr" xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";>
<info><title>Test</title></info>
<chapter xml:id="introduction"><title>Introduction</title>
<para>Blah blahblah</para>
</chapter>
<colophon>
<para>colophon text</para>
</colophon>
</book>
above it's OK but this one :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<book version="5.0" xml:lang="fr" xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";>
<info><title>Test</title></info>
<colophon>
<para>colophon text</para>
</colophon>
</book>
which is valid don't work.
