Uhm. The .xml is generated by something like this: asciidoc -d manpage -b docbook -o awesome.1.xml < awesome.1.txt This step works fine. The actual manpage is then generated via: xmlto man awesome.1.xml This step goes wrong. I suggest you could try running this by hand and see if you get any more useful output? Perhaps xmlto crashes or something like that? I vaguely remember that there was once a bug in xmlto that we ran into, but I can't find anything about it right now. Note: The above would need to be run in manpages/ in awesome's source.
