Ulf,
Yes, and spent most of today fighting with the existing makefile,
I know what you mean, I was pleased when I first got that "beast" to life ;-)

learning
a few basic things about xsltproc and catalogc.
What is catalogc?

The result is a much simplified
dependency situation.
That sounds good!

I've attached a patch which I ask you to test whether it works for you.
You need to apply the patch and remove the catalog.xml file.
I'll also include a commented version of the patch into the main body of
this mail.
I will try it soon, but first going to fix the image issue below....

Ulf: Is there any specific reason why  you do this:
edg_images:
     cp $(DOCBOOKXSL)/images/note.png ./edg_graphics
     cp $(DOCBOOKXSL)/images/tip.png ./edg_graphics
     cp $(DOCBOOKXSL)/images/warning.png ./edg_graphics

In the makefile instead of just copying them over and chekcing them in?

a) After looking at the license of the package I'm no longer sure that we
  could distribute it under this license (I'm not sure about the contrary
  either)
Ooops, didn't thought about the legal things, I'd expected GPL or something, but you're right.

I'll replace the images with something else (probably derive some icons from the GTK_STOCK images).

b) It looks like you already checked them in (probably accidentally):
----
Yes, I will replace them somehow soon.

I will look at the makefile patch afterwards.
