Re: [docbook-apps] [HELP] How can I get rid of the output of the <revhistory /> tag in the EPUB output

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

Hi,
More details are needed to determine the problem.

What numbered version of DocBook XSL are you using?

Are you using DocBook 5 and the the docbook-ns stylesheets, or DocBook4 and 
the non-namespaced stylesheets?

Are you processing a book or article?

Is the revhistory element located in an info element or in the body of the 
document? (revhistory can appear in a para, for example)

Are you using the epub or epub3 stylesheet?

How are you importing it and customizing it

(sorry, I don't have time to reverse engineer your whole build setup).
