Hi Dermot,
I found the problem. I had forgotten that the template/titlepage.xsl stylesheet was
changed so that it could output elements in a namespace by setting the stylesheet
param "ns" to the namespace name. This was to fix the problem of generating
titlepage templates for XHTML output, whose elements are in the XHTML namespace.
But the change also affected the fo titlepage file, but I don't think that was
intentional. Until this gets fixed, you can reproduce your titlepage stylesheet by
setting the ns param as follows:
xsltproc -o titlepage.fo.xsl --stringparam ns http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format
docbook-xsl-1.77.0/template/titlepage.xsl titlepage.fo.xml
I think this feature can be automated by adding the namespace string to each of the
titlepage.template.xml files so that the stylesheet knows what the default namespace
should be (and it can still be overwritten on the command line).

Hi Dermot,
Indeed, the titlepage spec system is broken in 1.77.0. I'll investigate and get
back to you. Thanks for the report.

Subject: [docbook-apps] New namespacing in DocBook XSL 1.77.0 titlepage
customization for FO causing problems
Hi,
The titlepage spec file I use for FO output no longer works in DocBook XSL
1.77.0. The first two pages in the resulting PDF (i.e. the title page and
copyright page) appear blank. From what I can see, the only relevant change
is in the template/titlepage.xsl stylesheet which now uses the fo namespace.
So even if I just have a spec file containing the following line I'll get
the blank pages:
<t:titlepage t:element="book" t:wrapper="fo:block"/>
Any ideas?
Rgds, Dermot
