According to a post I found (from 2011) the packages were called docbook-xml and docbook-xsl HOWEVER I believe the process of creating the gnucash-docs package builds multiple versions of the same content, so if I recall correctly, when you install the docs package you get the docbook source documentation plus the same content rendered as pdf and html formats PLUS translated versions of the same content in several languages. Note you can download (or view) ALL of the the documentation versions and translations (built from the same sources) on the website: https://www.gnucash.org/docs.phtml > ----- > Please remember to CC this list on all your replies. > You can do this by using Reply-To-List or Reply-All. > _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
