Обсуждение: Build man pages: unkown SDATA
I've been trying to build the man pages in 8.2, unfortunately I am seeing: $ make man ... onsgmls postgres.sgml | sgmlspl /usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.14/helpers/docbook2man-spec.pl --lowercase --section l --date "`date '+%Y-%m-%d'`" Unknown SDATA: [mdash ] at /usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.14/helpers/docbook2man-spec.pl line 1239, <STDIN> line 10730. make: *** [man] Error 9 Doing a bit more hacking I find that the following will also cause this error: mdash, pi, uuml, ouml, egrave, quot, scaron, oslash Do I need to specifically point docbook2man-spec.pl at a certain stylesheet? Any ideas appreciated. Cheers Mark

The docbook2X package has Thomas Lockhart's version of docbook2man-spec.pl, which works. Unfortunately there does not appear to be a port of this for Freebsd that I could find (I guess it is not that vital - can probably just copy the single file from the Gentoo package). So - bottom line is that docbook2X *not* docbook-utils (or docbook-sgml-utils) is the package required. The Pg documentation does actually say this (requires docbook2X for Linux), but I was confused by the lack of any such package on Freebsd (oops). One other point for those who wish to struggle with this - ./configure does not detect the -spec file, you need to set D2MDIR to where it lives (/usr/bin on this Gentoo dist) before trying to build the man pages.
