Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Parameter refentry.pagebreak makes no effect?
The stylesheet has some interesting logic regarding refentry when inside a reference (or part) element. It creates a title page for the reference element, but that is all it puts in that page sequence. Each refentry in the reference element starts a new page sequence. That is done because only a page sequence can start on an odd-numbered page, which is a common style for manual pages. The refentry.pagebreak parameter doesn't affect this logic, and so it is only useful when refentry appears inside something other than a reference or part element. I consider this is a bug, since the expectation is that the parameter should join the refentries together. The parameter needs to be applied earlier in the template, to create a single page sequence for the reference element so that the individual refentry elements are not in their individual page-sequences. Can you file a bug report on this on the DocBook SourceForge site?
