I'd kind of like to enhance the configure script to more easily set up 
all that's needed to build documentation.  Apparently some people have 
found this painful.

I've been comparing the Slony-I docbook.m4 with the PostgreSQL 
docbook.m4;  if anything, it looks like the Slony-I version is *more* 
complete than what is in PostgreSQL's docbook.m4.

The one bit where Slony-I is *slightly* ahead, though not by enough, is 
with the handling of docbook2man-spec.pl.  With PostgreSQL, the makefile 
assumes D2MDIR is set to the directory where that script lives.  With 
Slony-I, docbook.m4 checks validity of D2MDIR.

Question:  Where does docbook2man-spec.pl live, on varying systems?

On Debian, it's in:
   /usr/share/perl5/sgmlspl-specs

I forget how to search for files using RPM; a web search finds that on 
SuSE and Fedora in the same place...
   /usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.14/helpers

   Methinks I could search for this via:
      find /usr/share/sgml/docbook -name helpers -type d

Can people that have been running Slony-I on Fedora/RHAS confirm that, 
or provide a better choice?

Could someone on FreeBSD let me know about their favorite path to this 
script?

Thanks in advance!
