You never, ever, need to modify the XML contents using a helper 
application. Please select the text node (Ctrl-Up or click on #text in 
the node path bar), then use Edit|Replace to replace it with a <para>.

You may also directly replace it with a <variablelist> or <itemizedlist> 
  (Inserting a list inside a paragraph is not a good idea.)

Alternatively, define a default element template for <entry> containing 
a <para>. See

That's right for DocBook 4, but DocBook 5 has a stricter grammar. See
