Description Johannes Penßel 2022-02-12 19:45:06 UTC 
Unlike virtually every other distro, (https://pkgs.org/search/?q=docbook-xml) Gentoo still maintains some truly primordial versions of docbook-xml in its repos. There are also several packages with hard-dependencies on multiple of these at once. (Looks like there is an issue with eclass inheritance?) I'd suggest for all versions older than 4.5 to be dropped and to make the package otherwise dependent on the (gtk-)doc USE flag.

Comment 1 Johannes Penßel 2024-12-20 14:11:53 UTC 
When I filed this bug, I apparently had absolutely no clue on how docbook is versioned and how different distributions package it. This report is in fact complete bogus. Sorry for the noise.
