Had to link 4.3 though. ln -sd /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xml-dtd-4.3/ent /usr/share/sgml/docbook/sgml-dtd-4.2/ Sorry for the late reply. The problem seems to be that you're trying to use a toolchain designed for SGML documents with an XML document. You can either: a) Modify the DOCTYPE declaration to turn it into a SGML document: <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V4.2//EN"> Then docbook2pdf should work. b) Use an XML toolchain (e.g. xmlto). Still, you'd have to fix the DOCTYPE declaration, since it's missing a URL. Using something like: <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd"> and then "xmlto pdf inputfile" should work (in theory). Unfortunately, the PDF backend is buggy and can give you some problems. Running the following commands manually might help: xsltproc -o tmp.fo http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/fo/docbook.xsl inputfile pdfxmltex tmp.fo mv tmp.pdf outputfile |
When i've written a docbook file and want to turn it into pdf or what ever i run 'docbook2pdf myfile.docbook'. I get a lot of 'can't find' errors. The problem: The ent folder is missing from '/usr/share/sgml/docbook/sgml-dtd-4.2' Solution: run 'ln -sd /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xml-dtd-4.2/ent/ /usr/share/sgml/docbook/sgml-dtd-4.2' Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. docbook2{what ever} 2. 3. Actual Results: i get loads of can't find errors Expected Results: can't find errors should not be printed at all, which happens when you've ran the ln command above in my solution.
