I've tried to keep customization to a minimum and +confine it to the separate XSL driver files in the distribution +`./docbook-xsl/` directory (see the User Guide for details). + +To polish some rough edges I've written some patches for the DocBook +XSL stylesheets -- you don't need them but they're documented below +and included in the distribution `./docbook-xsl/` directory. + + +Manually upgrading Debian to the latest DocBook XSL stylesheets +--------------------------------------------------------------- +The DocBook XSL Stylesheets distribution is just a directory full of +text files and you can switch between releases by changing the +directory name in the system XML catalog. + +To upgrade to the latest docbook-xsl stylesheets without having to +wait for the Debian `docbook-xsl` package: + +- Download the latest docbook-xsl tarball from + http://sourceforge.net/projects/docbook/.
