Description Crutcher Dunnavant 2002-07-30 14:40:46 UTC 
Description of Problem:
xmlto will fail on processing files with underscores in their names.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xmlto-0.0.8, xmlto-0.0.10-4 (the limbo beta)

How Reproducible:
use xmlto on the attached file as:

xmlto ps example.xml

and as

xmlto ps example_underscore.xml


This is very annoying/broken. I'm trying to find the cause, but haven't found it
yet.
Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2002-07-30 22:55:07 UTC 
This is a tetex limitation of some sort.  It might be worthwhile for xmlto to 
work around it though.
Comment 2 Crutcher Dunnavant 2002-07-31 07:24:35 UTC 
I'm faking it like this in my makefiles, if it helps:

%.ps: %.fo
        # Stupid, stupid, stupid xmltex dies on '_' in filenames.
        ORIGDIR="$$PWD"; \
        DIR=`mktemp -d /tmp/ghede.XXXXXX`; \
        MUNGE=`basename $^ | sed -e 's/_/.u./g'`; \
        cp $^ $$DIR/$$MUNGE.fo && \
        cd $$DIR; \
        xmltex $$MUNGE.fo > /dev/null && \
        xmltex $$MUNGE.fo > /dev/null && \
        xmltex $$MUNGE.fo > /dev/null && \
        dvips -R -q -o $$ORIGDIR/$@ $$MUNGE.dvi; \
        cd $$ORIGDIR; \
        rm -rf $$DIR;

%.pdf: %.fo
        # Stupid, stupid, stupid pdfxmltex dies on '_' in filenames.
        ORIGDIR="$$PWD"; \
        DIR=`mktemp -d /tmp/ghede.XXXXXX`; \
        MUNGE=`basename $^ | sed -e 's/_/.u./g'`; \
        cp $^ $$DIR/$$MUNGE.fo && \
        cd $$DIR; \
        pdfxmltex $$MUNGE.fo > /dev/null && \
        pdfxmltex $$MUNGE.fo > /dev/null && \
        pdfxmltex $$MUNGE.fo > /dev/null && \
        mv $$MUNGE.pdf $$ORIGDIR/$@; \
        cd $$ORIGDIR; \
        rm -rf $$DIR;
