Description Yanko Kaneti 2016-12-30 14:23:31 UTC
Description of problemL
install gl-manpages-1.1-12.20161227.fc26.noarch from the rawhide repository
man glProvokingVertex
Notice the odd .PP in row 4 column 3


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
docbook5-style-xsl-1.79.1-1.fc25.noarch

Steps to Reproduce:
 fedpkg clone -a gl-manpages
 cd gl-manpages
 fedpkg sources
 tar xJf gl-manpages-1.1-20161227.tar.xz
 cd gl-manpages-1.1-20161227/man4/
 xsltproc --xinclude --nonet /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-ns-stylesheets-1.79.1/manpages/docbook.xsl glProvokingVertex.xml
 man ./glProvokingVertex.3G

I am not sure of this is a bug in the xsl or the original is not allowed to have two paragraphs in a table entry...

Comment 1 Ondrej Vasik 2016-12-31 21:23:46 UTC
Thanks for report, I think it can be helpful to submit this question/report to upstream mailing list - https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/ (or alternatively to sourceforge or github) - as I will not have time to further analyze this issue anytime soon.

Comment 2 Ondrej Vasik 2017-01-03 11:37:07 UTC
btw. as the error is with the tailing spaces, it can be similar to the https://sourceforge.net/p/docbook/bugs/1381/ (and/or https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1400526 ) - where similar issue occurs. Processing the manpage with something like $(sed -i 's/[ \t]*\.PP$/\.PP/g' glProvokingVertex.3G) can be used as workaround.

Comment 6 Ben Cotton 2018-11-27 18:32:32 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that are no longer maintained.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.

Comment 7 Ben Cotton 2019-02-19 17:12:04 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 30 development cycle.

Comment 9 Ben Cotton 2020-05-26 14:42:04 UTC
Fedora 30 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-05-26. Fedora 30 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.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
