 Docbook is nearly as difficult as fonts!

Creating a working setup for processing Docbook is a lot more
difficult than configuring fonts especially since fonts are so simple
to handle nowadays.

 Tried making the latest CVS 
 
 cd ../html/C  /usr//bin/xsltproc --xinclude --nonet 
 ../../stylesheets/plainhtml.xsl ../../src/gimp.xml
 Writing gimp-xrefs-en.xml for book(GIMP)
 No template matches xi:include in chapter.
 
 and 100s more of No template matches xi:include
 
 The URL here
 book id=GIMP xmlns:xi=http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude;
 
 doesn't seem to point to anything specific but you can find an 
 XML schema for the XI namespace by hunting around that site.

An xmlns URL doesn't need to point to any document. It's just an
identifier, you aren't supposed to interpret it as a link.

Let me quote what I just sent to gimp-developer on pretty much the
same subject:

The DTDs are absolutely necessary in order to process the files. You
cannot expect things to work if the DTDs are missing. Also you
shouldn't use the DTDs from the network but have them installed at
your computer. You will need an XML catalog file that tells your XSLT
processort where the DTDs are found on your disk. Usually this file
lives in /etc/xml. AFAIK it is correctly installed on recent RedHat
systems; it is known to be broken on Debian and I don't know about
other distributions. For Debian there is a script that attempts to fix
the catalog file. Use it at your own risk:

[Gimp-user] How to export only one channel in grey levels ?

2004-01-11 Thread Jean-Luc Coulon (f5ibh)
Hi,

I've shooted some infra-red pictures with my digital camera.
I would like to isolate the red channel and transform it to a black and white  
picture, discarding the green and blue channels.

How to do that ?

If I select only the red and change the mode to grey levels, I get only a  
transparent picture.

You should decompose the image. This is not the only way to do
it, but it's certainly the easiest. The Decompose filter was
moved in the 1.3 tree to Image/Filters/Colors/Decompose. Select
RGB from the choices offered, and you will get 3 greyscale
images, one for each channel.

Cheers,
Dave.

If that's really version 1.3.2 you are using then an update would long

That's nothing... My RH9 distro came with gimp-1.2x! Of course I updated
like very fast. :)

 Hi,
 
 thanks for the quick hint.
 
 In fact un update was overdue as it seems, do not know why Suse still 
 supplies that old version.
 Anyway, using the 2.0pre I still have the problem that when I select two 
 files in Konqueror and open them with gimp-remote -n I get one gimp 
 instance and only one picture. If I select more than two e.g. 4 and open 
 them I get gimp, gimp2,3,5 and only three images opened.
 
 And still there is no option in the preferences to never open more than 
 one instance.

What's happening is that Konqueror is calling gimp-remote -n once for each
file, instead of listing all the files on a single invocation of gimp-remote.
Since gimp takes a while to start up, gimp-remote thinks there isn't one
there, so it starts new instances of the app.

Konqueror should be fixed to do the right thing, instead of doing contortions
in gimp-remote to fix this.

 I'll get into a dependency hell when trying to make an rpm.
 The main problem is to get freetype 2 that will install w/o dependency

well, here is the ditz's take on it, but especially with linux, you need
to be really careful about the names.  mandrake and freetype might
always have issues, for the simple matter of why they chose the names
they did.  the names dont work well together.  mandrake would be a
completely different idea than freetype; neither one being a bad idea
either.

redhat is so much like what you might expect from something wearing a
red hat.  one time stable installation.  wait a long time.  then
reinstall.  well chosen aliases so that if you change distributions, you
will at least miss them.  carefree night on the town in a red hat, or to
the rescue.  maybe an old lady with a good recipe who is also wearing a
purple dress?  i think redhat is sort of like america and what is good
about it.  you might not prefer this however.

debian is a bunch of guys contributing.  oh, i am sure there are some
girl contributors also, but many more guys.  ian started it for his
girlfriend debbie.  one of debians big issues is that debbie has lots of
boyfriends now.  they talked me into running sid, so i could get
netscape3 back (it is the same as making me dress risque so that i can
go ballroom dancing) then they broke something so it doesnt work.  I
call it all dressed up and no where to go.  very very much like having
one or a million boyfriends.  i see no difference.

i have no idea what the gentoo people are doing.  same with knoppix.

the thing i wish i had done was to build my own from scratch.  the linux
people have been racing with windows for so long now, i should have done
this in 1999.  it seems like a huge project now.

mandrake and gimp have always had a weird relationship; i really think
it is the names.

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=mandraker=67 the root is
poisonous.  i am sure that little bits of it might be beneficial.

gimp, well.  not named after a poison; at least not to itself.

gimp has never worked this way.  perhaps you should go back to using the
software you were using.  i dont think gimp should ever work this way.
