Randy, Firstly I checked /etc/sgml/sgml.conf and it appears that SGML_BASE_DIR points in the wrong location, despite my installing with prefix /usr/local it still pointed to /usr, so I corrected that and now I get different errors. docbook2man ../fc-cache/fc-cache.sgml Using catalogs: /etc/sgml/catalog Using stylesheet: /usr/local/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.14/docbook-utils.dsl#print Working on: /sources/fontconfig-2.3.1/fc-cache/../fc-cache/fc-cache.sgml nsgmls:/usr/local/share/sgml/docbook/sgml-dtd-4.3/dbpoolx.mod:815:17:E: character ":" invalid: only "CDATA", "ENTITIES", "ENTITY", "ID", "IDREF", "IDREFS", "NAME", "NAMES", "NMTOKEN", "NMTOKENS", "NOTATION", "NUMBER", "NUMBERS", "NUTOKEN", "NUTOKENS" and parameter separators allowed ..... nsgmls:I: maximum number of errors (200) reached; change with -E option /usr/local/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.14/backends/man: line 11: sgmlspl: command not found make[2]: *** [fc-cache.1] Error 8 make[2]: Leaving directory `/sources/fontconfig-2.3.1/fc-cache' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/sources/fontconfig-2.3.1' make: *** [all] Error 2 Some answers to your questions; 1. Yes docbook-utils-0.6.14 is installed (see above make output) 2. SGMLSpm is not instaled, I could not get it to install in /usr it insisted on installing itself in /usr/local which is totally seperate from the rest of my perl install, will work on figuring out why it wants to install in a different place, and if I can get it to behave. I will hold on the quick fix to see if my experience can be of any further use .....
