Re: [docbook] xsltproc doesn't work when book's namespace specified

[moving this over to the docbook-apps mailing list where such topics are 
discussed]

When using xsltproc and DocBook 5 files, I would strongly recommend 
switching to the namespace-aware set of stylesheets.  Download 
docbook-xsl-ns-1.73.2. You will have far fewer problems.
