Re: [docbook-apps] Unexpected xref behavior; is this a case for Two-pass processing

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

I'm not able to duplicate that behavior.
When I create a customization with just those two parameters
set, the xrefs to figures don't have the page number in the
FO output.  This is with the 1.64.1 stylesheets.

Perhaps something else in your customization is
turning insert.xref.page.number back on?
