After checking that you have the
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
title="docbook2X: Dependencies on other software">necessary
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
prerequisites, unpack the tarball, then run

|
Packit |
e4b6da |
"userinput">./configure, and then
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
make,
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
make install, as
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
usual.
|

Packit |

|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
Note
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
If you
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
intend to use only the pure XSLT version of docbook2X, then you do
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
not need to compile or build the package at all. Simply unpack the
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
tarball, and point your XSLT processor to the XSLT stylesheets
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
under the xslt/ subdirectory.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
(The last make
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
install step, to install the files of the package
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
onto the filesystem, is optional. You may use docbook2X from its
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
own directory after building it, although in that case, when
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
invoking docbook2X, you will have to specify some paths manually on
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
the command-line.)
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
You may also want to run make
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
check to do some checks that the package is working
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
properly. Typing make -W
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
docbook2X.xml man texi in the
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
"filename">doc/ directory will rebuild docbook2X’s own
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
documentation, and can serve as an additional check.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
You need GNU make to build docbook2X properly.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
If you are using the CVS version, you will also need the
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
autoconf and automake tools, and must run
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
"userinput">./autogen.sh first. But see also
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
the note below about the CVS version.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
If you
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
want to (re-)build HTML documentation (after having installed
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
Norman Walsh’s DocBook XSL stylesheets), pass
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
"option">--with-html-xsl to
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
"userinput">./configure. You do not really
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
need this, since docbook2X releases already contain pre-built HTML
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
documentation.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
Some other packages also call their conversion programs
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
docbook2man and
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
docbook2texi; you can
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
use the --program-transform-name
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
parameter to
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
"userinput">./configure if you do not want
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
docbook2X to clobber over your existing
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
"command">docbook2man or
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
"command">docbook2texi.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
If you are using a Java-based XSLT processor, you need to use
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
pass --with-xslt-processor=saxon for
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
SAXON, or --with-xslt-processor=xalan-j
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
for Xalan-Java. (The default is for libxslt.) In addition, since
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
the automatic check for the installed JARs is not very intelligent,
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
you will probably need to pass some options to
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
"userinput">./configure to tell it where the
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
JARs are. See ./configure
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
--help for details.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
The docbook2X package supports VPATH builds (building in a
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
location other than the source directory), but any newly generated
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
documentation will not end up in the right place for installation
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
and redistribution. Cross compilation is not supported at all.

It’s included in the docbook2X package. If Perl says it
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
cannot find it, then that is a bug in the docbook2X distribution.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
Please report it.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
In older versions of docbook2X, the SGMLSpl module had to be
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
installed, or specified manually on the Perl command line. That is
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
no longer the case.

Use GNU make to build docbook2X (as opposed to BSD make).

I could fix this incompatibility in the docbook2X make files,

You will need to set up the XML catalogs for the DocBook XML
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
DTDs correctly. This tells the XSLT processor where to find the
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
DocBook DTDs on your system. Recent Linux distributions should
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
already have this done for you.
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
This error (or rather, warning) is harmless in the case of
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
docbook2X documentation — it does not actually require the
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
DTD to build. But your other DocBook documents might (mainly
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
because they use the ISO entities).
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
libxml also understands SGML catalogs, but last time I tried it
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
there was some bug that stopped it from working. Your Mileage May
|
|
Packit |
e4b6da |
Vary.

e4b6da |
--with-html-xsl to

in CVS, but the Makefile still tries to install them. (This issue
