Description of problem: When you create a new publican book, you have to edit the .cfg before you can publish it. The default files are also not nested in a human-readable form. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [jmorgan@jmorgan en-US]$ rpm -qi publican Name : publican Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 1.1 Vendor: Fedora Project Release : 0.fc11 Build Date: Tue 03 Nov 2009 05:54:29 AM EST Install Date: Mon 09 Nov 2009 09:47:12 AM EST Build Host: ppc2.fedora.redhat.com Group : Applications/Publishing Source RPM: publican-1.1-0.fc11.src.rpm Size : 1263877 License: (GPLv2+ or Artistic) and CC0 Signature : (none) Packager : Fedora Project How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Execute "publican create --name publican_base_publish --lang en-US --product JBoss_Middleware 2. Execute "cd publican_base_publish" 3. Execute "publican build --formats=html-single --langs=en-US" Actual results: The following error message is displayed: Invalid format for docname. Value (ARRAY(0xafd5ac4)) does not conform to constraint ([^a-zA-Z_\-0-9.]) at /usr/bin/publican line 362 Expected results: The book should publish using the default values configured when you build the book. Additional info: The publican.cfg file has extra parameters added which are left blank. Removing these manually and republishing will result in a successful publish.
