You shouldn't have to address the Makefile to do anything if you have DocBook-XSL installed in the system as in the book. In other words, it will use the stylesheets as described in /etc/xml/catalog. Our sources say to use release 1.69.1 of the stylesheets. If you have them installed and registered on your system, they'll be used. > And, another question: is there any procedure to make the rendering > independent from the version of xsl?

The stylesheets change, so the book can really only work with a single version. That's why in BLFS we download all those other versions of DocBook XML and DocBook XSL and install them. To have the ability to render XML/XSL source that depends on different versions of the DTD or stylesheets. According to Manuel, some changes will have to be made to the book sources to make them compatible with newer versions of DocBook XSL. This will happen soon, but for now, you need version 1.69.1. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
