Ulf,
I've just spent half an hour trying to build the guide on a suse 9.1
Well, you're happy! I needed half a month to build the guide the first
time :-(
The makefile is still far from being perfect, I know. It still needs
some more fine tuning.
First I needed to change the path to docbook-xsl, unfortunately there
is no comment in the catalog file that the Makefile needs to be changed
too.
You might first read Readme.txt which will tell you to use appropriate
settings in both files.
To quote it:
"The current Makefile is running under Win32 in the cygwin environment,
so it uses
GNU make and such. It should be pretty easy to use it in UNIX
environments too.
Using Microsoft make (nmake) is not supported."
... but it doesn't seem to be pretty easy :-(
Also, the fop command is just fop on suse, just as it should be.
well, if fop is in your path, that should be working pretty well. As
it's not in mine (and fop is not installable directly through cygwin),
I've choosen to hard code the path where to find it on my system.
Is there a reason why you hard coded two different shell scripts into
Makefile?
Sorry, don't get the point. Which shell scripts do you mean?
And after a) finding the correct path for docbook-xsl and
b) changing catalog.xml and Makefile to use that path and
...as mentioned in the Readme.txt...
c) installing
fop and
...as mentioned in the Readme.txt...
d) fixing Makefile to use fop
...as mentioned in the Readme.txt...
I'm now presented with the
following error:
jmayer@egg:~/work/ethereal/trunk/docbook> make

make: *** [eug_pdf_a4] Error 1
Any idea how to get over this?
you might first try to create the html versions using:
make eug_html_chunked
to see if that part works ok, as it don't need fop.
Didn't saw that fop problem before, as I'm using fop.bat which looks
quite different compared to fop.sh.
The fo intermediate file seemed to be generated, but when trying to
convert it to pdf, one (or any?) of the java classes could not be loaded.
Maybe something to do with the CLASSPATH or such, but I'm unsure.
