You could try to do the build with the "html5" target instead of "xhtml5" and see if that works. If so, we could switch to that instead if we want to support older Asciidoctor versions. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | https://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: https://keybase.io/bk2204
