release notes

I have publican 1.6.2-0.el5.

publican is inserting a - character in front of every special character in the <screen> tags in the PDF. For example, I have this:

<screen><userinput>/usr/sbin/alternatives --config java</userinput> &nbsp;

There are 2 programs which provide 'java'.

  Selection    Command
-----------------------------------------------
*+ 1           /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.5.0-ibm/bin/java
   2           /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-sun/bin/java

Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number: 1

<userinput>/usr/sbin/alternatives --config javac</userinput> &nbsp;

There are 2 programs which provide 'javac'.

  Selection    Command
-----------------------------------------------
   1           /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-bea/bin/javac
*+ 2           /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-ibm/bin/javac</screen>


And it renders it as this in the PDF:

=========================================================================

/usr/sbin/alternatives ---config java

  Selection    Command
