Re: [docbook-apps] EPUB2 vs. EPUB3: Making base.dir consistent?

If you do the fresh checkout from sourceforge there are additional steps you need to complete to get the stylesheets working

To get the latest version that will work right out of the box you can download it from snapshots.docbook.org
