  11 A manual page <package>.<section> will be generated. You may view the
  12 manual page with: nroff -man <package>.<section> | less'. A typical entry
  13 in a Makefile or Makefile.am is:

  21 The xsltproc binary is found in the xsltproc package. The XSL files are in
  22 docbook-xsl. A description of the parameters you can use can be found in the
  23 docbook-xsl-doc-* packages. Please remember that if you create the nroff
  24 version in one of the debian/rules file targets (such as build), you will need
  25 to include xsltproc and docbook-xsl in your Build-Depends control field.
  26 Alternatively use the xmlto command/package. That will also automatically
  27 pull in xsltproc and docbook-xsl.
  28
  29 Notes for using docbook2x: docbook2x-man does not automatically create the
  30 AUTHOR(S) and COPYRIGHT sections. In this case, please add them manually as
  31 <refsect1> ... </refsect1>.
  32
  33 To disable the automatic creation of the AUTHOR(S) and COPYRIGHT sections
  34 read /usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl/doc/manpages/authors.html. This file can be
  35 found in the docbook-xsl-doc-html package.
