FVWM: fvwm-2.6.4 docbook stuff is breaking the building of fvwm on Solaris

[Goodrick]

Hi,

I don't know anything about the docbook generation stuff that was
added as part of 2.6, but the file

fvwm-2.6.4/doc/docbook-xsl/html/biblio-iso690.xsl

encoding entry on the first line of the file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="*windows-1250*"?>

is breaking the build of fvwm on my solaris platform (as *windows-1250*
is not recognized as a valid encoding, at least on my solaris machine).
This problem seems to occur whether you enable or disable document
generation.

As a hack, I changed it to read
<?xml version="1.0" *encoding="ISO-8859-1"*?>

which seems to work fine. Could someone take a look at this as its stopping
me from upgrading from 2.4 to 2.6 because it won't build out of the box.

Platform: "SunOS 5.10 Generic_142901-04 i86pc i386 i86pc"

Unfortunately the machine I am trying to build on is not externally
networked so
can't use the fvwm-bug script to send in a bug report.

Best regards
Bob Goodrick

It has been in 2.5.X for bloody ages, to be honest.

This will be nothing to do with FVWM and everything to do with DocBook, so I
recommend you go and ask them.

Note that I have no interest in fixing this at all, we're moving to Asciidoc
very shortly.
