Is that (the above) everythin in your /etc/xml/catalog file? If so, then
it's not really surprising that you are running out onto the Internet
for everything -- the catalog file is essentially empty. Debian has
unfortunately had very poor support for XML catalogs until quite
recently. I don't know what the current level is like, since I do not
use that distribution.

As a start to repairing the problem, have a look at
http://www.xmlsoft.org/buildDocBookCatalog which is a shell script to
make the required entries for DocBook 4.1.2. If you have a different
version of the DocBook DTDs installed (quite possible, since 4.2 is the
latest release), you will need to tweak the script a little, but not
much.

Note that this script creates a separate catalog file and then adjusts
/etc/xml/catalog to point to the newly created file (only) for DocBook
lookups. That is the standard way to do this stuff, rather than
populating /etc/xml/catalog with all your entries (makes packaging
easier, too). It may be that the Debian DocBook DTD package already
ships a catalog file, in which case you only need to add the appropriate
lines to /etc/xml/catalog, which you can take out of the above script.

If your catalog set up is working, then XInclude processing will also
use it (libxml2 uses the catalogs by default).

Cheers,
Malcolm

I have this catalog file and xsltproc tries to open it, however it still
continues trying to load the files from net. This is a Debian unstable
system, all DTDs are installed and since some package created this file
I assumed that Debian would automagically make it work, but no

Do you know where to modify the system to get it work?

I am pretty sure it loads the DTD from disk if you provide it an XML
catalog file that shows it where the DTD is found. This file is
usually called /etc/xml/catalog. See http://xmlsoft.org/catalog.html

I still do, but only under Mac OSX. More annoying with XInclude is that
xsltproc cannot be taught to really load the DTD from disk and/or cache
the DTD so it doesn't need to repeat this step for every subdocument
again (including issuing another "error" message).

Cool. Incidently I've also been working on this and my Mac really has
troubles when trying to compile such files with xsltproc; it will slowly
suck up all memory and finally explode. Was this your problem, too? How

DocBook doesn't need to. :) But I verified that the stylesheets do have
Swedish translations so there shouldn't be any problems. The language
code is 'sv' for Svenska.

[Gimp-developer] gimp-help-2 status

2003-12-10 Thread Roman Joost
This mail is only a tiny status mail of the current progress on
gimp-help-2.

With Raymonds help i'm now be able to build the help with UTF-8 encoded
XML files, which are "xincluded" in the gimp.xml file. All of
the entities are gone and i can replace the last files with the
correct unicode characters. I'm looking forward to replace all the old
files with the newer UTF-8 stuff on weekend. That means, the CVS should
be up to date soon (i've some frensh files on hold). Julien and Raymond
are working like machines.. i can't get the files into the CVS as they
produce them :)

The manual itself looks promising. We got some additional writing power
for the english content. Daryl Lee takes care about the english content
and Niklas can produce (or better: is producing) swedish content. We,
Niklas and i, ran into bit trouble lately, when we tried to produce
the manual with some swedish content. It seems, that docbook doesn't
have any swedish support?!

Additionally, we get some feedback from Ramanan Selvaratnam. He'll
support us with additional information about free software
backgrounds (sorry, i didn't have the time lately, to read all the
mails) and will provide content in 'Tamil' - "a truly global diaspora with
a growing interest in FS". Daniel pays attention to him, because he has
the most knowledge about the gimp-help-2 project.

Hopefully, i've some more time over new year's eve to write german
content and stay in sync with Raymond and Julien. I'm looking forward to
have a meeting with the Gimpers in Berlin on the 20C3 and a good manual
for the Gimp 2. I hope i didn't missed something ...

Re: [Gimp-developer] gimp-help-2 status and suggestions

2003-11-25 Thread Roman Joost
So, one step ahead to finish the gimp-help-2 move into the new source
structure, which finishes the source tree move and add the frensh
translation and content from Julien and Raymond. 
Before i type in my last "cvs commit" i want to verify one exception of
my proposal: the image directory.

I want to suggest, that we move the image directory containing all the
png files into the html directory (where the generated html files are
after a "make") and leave the source images (*.XCF Files which are
mostly screenshots) in the /src/images directory as suggested.
That seems a bit more reasonable for me, because we're separating the
image sources from the normal "content" screenshots. Additionally, we
don't need to move them into the /html directory or wherever. Yeah,
we're saving one move! 

So, if no one are against this suggestion, i'll check them in as i
mentioned here. After that, i'll write a status mail of the actual sources.

We'll switch to UTF-8 which should solve this problem, unless I'm

Agreed. Howver since a few persons are not too happy with the

I don't like the stylesheets being in one directory with the source

[Gimp-developer] gimp-help-2 status and suggestions

2003-11-15 Thread Roman Joost
After the frensh translation made the way into my gimp-help-2 sandbox,
Sven and Brix are pointed me to the current directory structure of the module.
In my current point of view, the current "help/C" directory is obsolete 
and should be replaced with a newer structure.

This is the actual structure. I made a "find ./ -type d" in the gimp-help-2
and removed the CVS directorys:

./
./help
./help/C
./help/C/C
./help/C/de
./help/C/filters
./help/C/filters/blur
./help/C/images
./help/C/images/glossary
./help/C/images/tool-options
./help/C/images/toolbox
./help/C/images/toolbox/de
./help/C/legal
./help/C/toolbox
./help/stylesheets

I recommend the following structure (gimp-help-2 is the top directory):
 
./
./src
./src/filters
./src/filters/blur
./src/images
./src/images/glossary
./src/images/tool-options
./src/images/toolbox
./src/images/toolbox/de
./src/images/toolbox/fr
./src/images/toolbox/se
./src/legal
./src/toolbox
./src/stylesheets
./html/C
./html/de
./html/fr
./html/se

The "./src" directory contain all the sources, including XML files,
stylesheets and images.

I would suggest, that the generated html pages are going into a source
seperated directory which is html. I added the "se" directory which
isn't in the actual gimp-help-2, but scizzo is on it, to fill out the
directory with content in the future. The language dependend image files
(like screenshots) are going into seperated directories
(./src/images/toolbox/de).

I hope, that i didn't missed something specific. I'm looking forward to
hear opinions from all the gimpers.

Additionally, i want to inform you about the status of the gimp-help-2.
The gimp-help-2 document the current tools (except the color tools) in
german and france, as well as in mostly english. Unfortunately, the
english part is mostly undone and i hope, syngin will close the gaps :)
Alan Horkan is working on the gfig plugin, which is mostly written.
Scizzo  invested time, to update the structure of the documentation and
how the manual structure should look like when its done.

I think, that we will need a native english speaking person, who can
check over the docs. Okey.. people who checking the docs and help the
writers are always appreciated. 

I added a "whishlist" for users to the gimp wiki.  This would help us to
 stay focused on more important things which are needed by the users.

To sum up, thanks a lot for all the work which is now in the module and
people are working on. There is much work to do and i'm looking
forward to inform you with all the changes which are changed in the
next months.

Thanks and Greetings,
