xml-stylebook-bin-20041208.ebuild

since we have circular dependencies with xerces and xalan we should add this
package as a binary version to the portage tree. xerces needs xml-stylebook,
xml-stylebook needs xalan and xalan needs xerces. we could break the dependency
chain by adding this package in a binary version. since this project is only
available via cvs atm i've made a snapshot which can be found here:

http://the-luckyduck.de/~lucky/xml-stylebook-20041208.tar.bz2

Could we rather bootstrap xml-stylebook inside xerces? I.e. compile xerces with
the bundled xml-stylebook.jar, then compile xml-stylebook.jar with the freshly
compiled xerces?

Both would be dojar'ed into /usr/share/xerces-<slot>

i've played around with xerces a lot, i.e. with the build process and on
runtime and figured out that we don't need xml-stylebook at all. it was needed
to generate some docs but we can still generate javadocs without this package.
that makes life for us much easier. because of this i close this one, no other
package relies up on xml-stylebook.

I think stylebook would be useful not just for xerces, but e.g. building docs
of batik too. Javadocs aren't everything.
Now, who can find the sources somewhere? :)

You will need to do a snapshot ebuild for this as there is no official release.
 Fortunately, that shouldnt be a big deal as the project is fairly stagnant
(the last change being made ~3 years ago).
