Subject: Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: PassiveTeX broken under 1.52.2?
I haven't had any joy with the xsltproc -- passivetex chain for ages, I think it worked on xsltproc 1.0.18 and docbook-xsl 1.51.1 but after that passivetex just choked on the fo output, and that image problem is still around so at the moment I am using openjade for print output (and html output with images). I think there is something seriously broken somewhere in the chain (I hear cries of "yes you" here, ;)). Hopefully I might get some time to investigate soon...
