I'll spare you the details of how I cam to notice this but i was just
applying some local patches to the most recent trunk Rev 11745
and realised that

Chapter 5 still has these two XML files in the source directory

gmp.xml
mpfr.xml


Add e2fsprogs.xml and flex.xml to this list...

even though they are no longer rendered, nor referred to, in the Book.

Similarly, in Chapter 6, these four no-longer-rendered XML files are in
the source directory

db.xml
module-init-tools.xml
pcre.xml
popt.xml

Maybe they could be removed from the SVN ahead of the upcoming release ?

Other files that used to slumber there (ed.xml) have been given the boot.

Also dedication.xml in prologue is not used anymore.

Other weird things are the id attributes, where pre-xxx occurs in chapter 2,
ch-tools-xxx occurs in chapter 4 and chapter 6, etc. I'd suggest the following:
-for chapters, id's are of the form chapter-xxx, where xxx may be composed of
several words.
- for sect1, form the id's as follow, ch-yyy-zzz, where yyy is the last word
of xxx for the parent chapter, and zzz may be ad libitum, but of course
related to the section title...
- use pre-zzz for sections in the prologue

I can make this clean up (removing unneeded files and refactor id's) if you 
agree.

Those unused files are still around because when we removed them, we were not sure if we wanted to put them back. I'm not sure they hurt anything, but what we can do is create an archive directory like in BLFS and move them there.

I'll point out that there are probably several files in stylesheets that are not used, but are a part of docbook.

I'm OK with you doing a cleanup if you really think we need to do that.
