Description Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 2016-09-12 12:39:40 UTC
Description of problem:
I'm trying to use the dbtoepub tool to created an epub file. However this tool is available through the following paths:
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-1.78.1/epub/bin/dbtoepub
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-ns-stylesheets-1.78.1/epub/bin/dbtoepub

These paths cannot be reasonably used as they contain a versioned directory. Please provide this binary in a standard binary directory.

Comment 1 Ondrej Vasik 2016-09-14 09:57:45 UTC
Thanks for the suggestion, based on README, dbtoepub is alpha-quality... I'm a bit worried about its potential fragility - but will check what can be done - in any case I would like to prevent conflicts between the xsl and xsl-ns packages... anyway - as it is binary, it should go to standard location...

Comment 4 Ben Cotton 2018-11-27 18:38:32 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life.
On 2018-Nov-30  Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for
Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases
that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as
EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version' of '27'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 27 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Fedora Linux 35 entered end-of-life (EOL) status on 2022-12-13.

Fedora Linux 35 is no longer maintained, which means that it
will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we
are closing this bug.
