Description Richard Garand 2003-11-08 12:35:48 UTC 
When using libxml2 2.6.1, attempting to process docbook files will generate many errors similar to 
this: 
 
file:///usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-1.62.4/common/fi.xml:512: namespace error : 
Namespace prefix l on template is not defined 
      <l:template name="Tue" text="Tue" lang="en"/> 
                                                 ^ 
 
The author has said, at http://sources.redhat.com/ml/docbook-apps/2003-q4/msg00337.html, that 
it is essentially broken. The 2.6.1 package should be masked to fix this problem.

Comment 1 Quinn Harris 2003-11-08 13:45:58 UTC 
The problem has been fixed in libxml2-2.6.2.  The libxml2-2.6.1 ebuild works
for libxml2-2.6.2.
Comment 2 Richard Garand 2003-11-08 13:52:11 UTC 
That's great, but someone needs to add 2.6.2 to portage or mask 2.6.1 so
that this problem can be fixed without having to fool portage into not installing
2.6.1 again.
Comment 3 Jan Killius 2003-11-09 08:46:48 UTC 
Simple upgrade to 2.6.2 this solved the problem by me. A new ebuild is needed
for this version portage is not up to date.
Comment 4 Priit Laes (IRC: plaes) 2003-11-09 13:53:09 UTC 
ebuild for libxml2-2.6.2 is a simple bump. And it really fixes this problem.
Comment 5 Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-11-09 14:06:20 UTC 
liquidx fixed this a few hours ago in cvs, please emerge sync for the 2.6.2
ebuild.
