Subject: revisit: putting together a docbook 5.0 toolchain for linux
revisiting something i was working on a while back before i got pulled away to another project, i want to put together a toolchain on fedora 12 linux for processing docbook 5.0 and generating as many of HTML/PDF/PS/whatever as possible, while keeping the installed packages to a minimum. to that end (and keeping this non-packagey), what aspects of toolchain processing can i *omit* that represent optional or legacy issues that i really don't care about? for instance: * don't care even marginally about SGML * don't care about DSSSL * don't care about docbook 4.x * don't care about DTD if schemas will be adequate you get the idea. if i have no need for backward compatibility, how little can i install on fedora 12 (hopefully extensible to other linux distros)? so far, i'm pretty sure i want the packages: * libxml2 (for xmllint and xmlcatalog) * libxslt (for xsltproc) * docbook5-schemas * docbook5-style-xsl * fop beyond that, i'm still checking dependencies. anyone else gone thru this exercise and deduced what needs to be there? if not, once i figure it out, i'll document it at my web site. thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
