Please take some time to download and test version 1.70.1 of the DocBook XSL stylesheets. If there are any bugs or regressions introduced in 1.70.0 in 1.70.1, it would be best to get them identified and fixed as soon as possible.

You can do a single-user install/uninstall of 1.70.1 by following these steps:

1. Download and uncompress the release from:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=21935&package_id=16608

You can uncompress the release file anywhere on your system. It doesn't need to go in /usr/local (or wherever) and you should not put it under /usr/share/xml or anywhere that's under the control of your OS's package-management system. It's fine just to put it in your home directory.

2. Run in the install.sh file in the release directory.

$ ./install.sh

That will set up your XML and SGML catalog environment so that it temporarily points to the place where you installed the 1.70.1. (The changes the install.sh file makes are non-destructive; it does not make any changes to your "real" catalog environment.)

3. After you're done testing with 1.70.1, if you want to restore your catalog environment to its original settings, you can do so by running the uninstall.sh file:

$ ./uninstall.sh

Thanks,
