Patching the stylesheet is fairly straightforward. Here's the diff from my environment: --------------- --- fo/qandaset.xsl Mon Sep 29 21:50:25 2003 +++ fo/qandaset.xsl.orig Tue Sep 30 15:42:27 2003 @@ -200,9 +200,7 @@ </xsl:variable> <fo:list-item xsl:use-attribute-sets="list.item.spacing"> - <!-- FIXME: this (somehow) seems to create dupe entries, breaking FOP --> - <!-- <fo:list-item-label id="{$id}" end-indent="label-end()"> --> - <fo:list-item-label end-indent="label-end()"> + <fo:list-item-label id="{$id}" end-indent="label-end()"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$deflabel = 'none'"> <fo:block/> --------------- Note that this isn't a smart fix. It just removes the ID, which arguably should be made unique in the calling style by some other means (prepending some identifier, etc...). IIRC, the on-list resolution to date was along the lines of "well, your parser should be able to handle that, it's broken", so I'm not sure how much sympathy such a patch will get.
