Hi,

there is a new version of our susedoc RPM packages. I would encourage you to install it and test it. Major improvements are mainly "under the hat" but to name a few:

* Separated layout from ENV file * Get rid of unnecessary environment variables * Fallback behavior for missing profiling stylesheets fixed * Profiling is done only when it is necessary * Several improvements for our "internal" stylesheets of creating openSUSE manuals (see xslt/ChangeLog for details) * Improved CSS handling * Support for multiple entity files

1. Installation and Update

Please update the susedoc RPM with your favorite installation tool (YaST, smart, rug, ...). In case you use YaST and haven't added the respective repository, read [1] to add it.

If you want to download the RPM package manually, find it under [2]. Choose your distribution and select "noarch". Look for susedoc-4.2_*.noarch.rpm.

2. Future Changes in ENV and Makefile

The new susedoc RPM package introduces also a new, cleaner design of building our books. It affects mainly the ENV and Makefile. For the time being we support both ways, but in the future the old method will not be available anymore. Therefor we will adapat the ENV and Makefile in the future to reflect these changes.

Please report any errors or other strange issues. (The openSUSE Build Server is building the packages at the moment. It takes some time. Stay tuned. ;) )

Have fun! Tom
