Morning Misty,

The bug linked by Josh is marked as fixed and verified. Norm, can you
please verify which version of Publican you are running? If you are
running a newer version than the one the bug says is fixed, this could
be a regression, and the bug needs to be reopened.
publican -v returns version=2.5. I'm running on Fedora 14, 64 bit in a
VirtualBox VM.

The bug report mentions that Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is available
and has fixed the bug. I have Scientific Linux 6.0 running in another VM
and it reports publican as version=2.1.

Both versions show the line splitting that I reports. However, the bug
linked to seems to be referring to problems in the po files, not in the
generated pdf. Is it really the same thing?

No, that bug is unrelated to your issue.

I've checked for all bugs in Publican with indexterm mentioned, there
appear to be 4 in total, and all of them seem to relate to tranlsations.

I *think* the problem lies within pdf.xsl. There is a template commented
as being copied in from index.xsl from Docbook XSL version 1.72. It has
the <fo:block> stuff added in two places which is not in Docbook XSL
version 1.75 plus the test on $axf.extensions in Publican is different
from that in Docbook which checks both $axf.extensions and
$fop1.extensions.

You are taxing my memory now, but as I recall it we added that code because of other formatting issues related to indexterms.

Please open a bug for this as we need to amke sure changing it doesn't introduce other issues.

If I comment out the two <fo:block> lines in pdf.xsl, it works as I
wish, but I have no idea of what other changes that will cause.

It may render the output invalid in other indexterm use cases, if so the PDF build will fail or look bad.

Cheers, Jeff.
