I have come across a Makefile that is trying to apply dblatex to an FO

specifies the .fo file (which was generated from xsltproc in another
step) as the input, and a
.pdf file as the output. I'm not a dblatex user, but it is my
understanding that it operates on
the original XML, not XSL-FO output, to generate a PDF. Is this
Makefile in error?
You're correct, it does not have a command line parameter for .fo input,
just xml or sgml.
I just checked that with the current version, 0.3.2. Perhaps an older
version used .fo input. There was also an older program called db2latex,
I believe. Might could be that used .fo files as input; I've never used
it.
I confirm: neither db2latex nor dblatex have ever worked on FO files. Only
on XML documents.
