Thread: docbook 5.0 toolchain

edit: first called "workflow" think "toolchain" better.

having trouble getting docbook toolchain. okay writing in xml, none of xsl processors seem work completely. have tried xsltproc, saxon, , xalan, on ubuntu 12.10. each seems work, not completely.

example, when try make examples installed saxon, following instructions in readme.debian file comes installation, get:

code:

~/saxon-examples$ make destfile=./tmp  [ -d . ] || mkdir -p .  uudecode -o /dev/stdout < openlogo.png.uu > ./openlogo.png  [ -d . ] || mkdir -p .  xsltproc --xinclude --nonet -o ./saxon.ext.001.noext.html \  	         --param use.extensions 0 \  	         db2html.xsl saxon.ext.001.xml  cannot insert mycode.c. check use.extensions , textinsert.extension parameters.  make: *** [saxon.ext.001.noext.html] error 10

when included example not work out of box, makes learning more difficult.

writing programming book, need include external files source code programs. got xsltproc working enough includes, i've read, line numbering not feature of xsltproc.

i've done lot of searching, of i've found out of date.

have written similar book in latex, i'm comfortable using complex markup language. however, latex not have reasonable path html/epub, want second book. i've played pandoc, seems limited needs.

overall, docbook seems best solution me -- if can work properly. i'm looking up-to-date documentation tells how set toolchain.
