Re: [docbook-apps] Olinks failing -- CaseA NOT matched -- SOLVED!

This was definitely an edge case. The problem is apparently a known bug 
in xslproc and libxslt. The issue was resolved by our Director of 
Engineering tweaking the Makefile and Makefile.inc. Here's Brian's 
statement:

The olinks were not working because they were not being included.

The olinkdb.xml file include several target.db files for each 
application. This include was occurring via the xi:include and 
--xinclude directive to xsltproc. Unfortunately there is a bug in our 
version of xslproc and libxslt that come with debian etch that prevents 
the includes with --xinclude is used with the --output option. We 
reworked our Makefiles to use the --output option and the olinks are 
working again.
