Description John J. McDonough 2011-07-12 12:06:08 UTC 
Description of problem:
The productname and productnumber are used to form the filename for pdf and epub documents.  However, if an entity from document_name.ent is used in these places (which would normally be the case), they are omitted from the filename, causing the filename to begin with a double hyphen.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.5

How reproducible:
reproduceable

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In Book_Info.xml:
    <productname>&PRODUCT;</productname>
    <productnumber>&PRODVER;</productnumber>
2. publican build -l en-US -f pdf,epub
3. ls tmp/en-US
   ls tmp/en-US/pdf
  
Actual results:
--docname.pdf (or epub)

Expected results:
product-version-docname.pdf

Redirecting upstream.
Comment 2 Jeff Fearn 🐞 2011-09-05 04:30:49 UTC 
The data used for packaging does not use the XSL system and therefore can not use content that requires XSLT processing to calculate the content.

This is a known limitation and will not be changing in the foreseeable future.
