Bah. You mean I actually have to publish it? It's not enough to just
build it on my laptop? 

Err. Yeah. Sorry about that.

Yep. Fixed in the repository. It's purely documentation so I'm not going
to generate another release for it.

Best way to add DocBook 4.5 to my catalog on Ubuntu

Hi,

I'm using Ubunty Fiesty Fawn. When I run apt-get install docbook-xml,
the latest version of DocBook it installs is 4.4. I need to add 4.5 to
my catalog.

Where is the best place to add it? Initially I added the 4.5 files
using a delegatePublic in /etc/xml/catalog:

sudo xmlcatalog --noout --add delegatePublic "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook
XML V4.5" "file:///usr/share/xml/docbook/schema/dtd/4.5/catalog.xml"
/etc/xml/catalog

This seemed to work.

But I was looking at /etc/xml/catalog, and I saw that all the other
DocBook files were referenced like this:

<delegatePublic publicIdStartString="-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML"
catalog="file:///etc/xml/docbook-xml.xml"/>

So it would seem to make more sense to put the 4.5 references in
docbook-xml.xml.

But when I looked at that file and there were several references to
the 4.4 catalog file.

Which is the correct/best place to add the references to the 4.5
catalog file? If I should be adding it to docbook-xml.xml, how do I do
this? Simply copy every 4.4 line and update it as appropriate?

Re: [docbook] Best way to add DocBook 4.5 to my catalog on Ubuntu

This should probably go to docbook-apps (or even docbook-packagers) - or
better on a Debian or Ubuntu list.

Read update-xmlcatalog(8). Every change you make using xmlcatalog will
be overwritten the next time, the system catalog is recreated - this
means, every time, a package installs a catalog, you will loose this
entry again.

This is the standard system on Debian:

Re: Best way to add DocBook 4.5 to my catalog on Ubuntu

Hi,

Thanks for the information. I'm glad I decided to ask before I started
messing around with things :-) I'll read update-xmlcatalog(8) and ask
around the Debian/Ubuntu lists if I need any more help.

The corresponding system ID points to the XML DTDs, and the documents
themselves use XML empty element syntax, so it is the XML version of
DocBook 4.5 that the author intended to use.
