I meant to mention in my report that I'm the maintainer of the man-page stylesheet in the DocBook XSL Stylesheets distribution, and the reason I came across the problems in the aptitude manpage.xml source is that I was in the process of adding the aptitude man-page sources to the set of sources I use for regression testing when I make updates to the manpages stylesheet.
So, FWIW, I have an area for aptitude set up in the DocBook Project source repository: https://docbook.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/docbook/trunk/contrib/samples/refentry/aptitude It's just a makefile plus the patch; I run the makefile to check out the latest aptitude sources and build the docs against the changes to the manpage stylesheet in my workspace. --Mike -- Michael(tm) Smith http://people.w3.org/mike/ http://sideshowbarker.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
