This package installs these entity sets and a catalog to reference them. SOURCE I know of no official online source of these entity sets. I copied the files from the SGML Repository: <ftp://ftp.ifi.uio.no/pub/SGML/ENTITIES/> The ISO 8879:1986 character entity sets are static. The ``point'' release number of this package is the release of this packaging. This package is maintained at <ftp://ftp.uu.net/vendor/bitsko/iso-entities/> INSTALLATION The entity sets need to be installed where your SGML processing system can find them. Copy the `iso-entities.cat' catalog to the same directory. Several packages will find the entity sets if you add the full path to `iso-entities.cat' to the environment variable `SGML_CATALOG_FILES', for example: SGML_CATALOG_FILES=/usr/lib/sgml/iso-entities-8879.1986/iso-entities.cat export SGML_CATALOG_FILES This package also comes with a `configure' script and `Makefile' that will install the entities following GNU install standards: zcat iso-entities-8879.1986.2.tar.gz | tar xvf - cd iso-entities-8879.1986 ./configure make make install By default, the entities will be installed into `/usr/local/lib/sgml/iso-entities-8879.1986'. The `--prefix' option to `configure' can be used to point to a different top level directory: ./configure --prefix=/usr
