Re: [docbook-apps] External entities to graphics lost during profiling

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

Hi,
It  seems the profiling stylesheets do resolve @entityref entity references 
during that stage of processing, since the entity declarations can't be 
copied by the XSLT profiling process (XSLT does not have access to the 
internal subset declarations).  This step is taken in 
profiling/profile-mode.xsl:

      <!-- Entity references must be replaced with filereferences for 
temporary tree -->
      <xsl:if test="@entityref and $profile.baseuri.fixup">
        <xsl:attribute name="fileref">
          <xsl:value-of select="unparsed-entity-uri(@entityref)"/>
        </xsl:attribute>
      </xsl:if>

The $profile.baseuri.fixup parameter is set to true() by default, so this 
should be working for you.  You might try doing the two-step profiling to 
examine the intermediate results to see what kind of fileref values you are 
getting.
