-A manual page <package>.<section> will be generated. You may view the
-manual page with: nroff -man <package>.<section> | less'. A typical entry
-in a Makefile or Makefile.am is:
-
-DB2MAN = /usr/share/sgml/docbook/stylesheet/xsl/nwalsh/manpages/docbook.xsl
-XP = xsltproc -''-nonet -''-param man.charmap.use.subset "0"
-
-manpage.1: manpage.xml
- $(XP) $(DB2MAN) $<
-
-The xsltproc binary is found in the xsltproc package. The XSL files are in
-docbook-xsl. A description of the parameters you can use can be found in the
-docbook-xsl-doc-* packages. Please remember that if you create the nroff
-version in one of the debian/rules file targets (such as build), you will need
-to include xsltproc and docbook-xsl in your Build-Depends control field.
-Alternatively use the xmlto command/package. That will also automatically
-pull in xsltproc and docbook-xsl.
-
-Notes for using docbook2x: docbook2x-man does not automatically create the
-AUTHOR(S) and COPYRIGHT sections. In this case, please add them manually as
-<refsect1> ... </refsect1>.
-
-To disable the automatic creation of the AUTHOR(S) and COPYRIGHT sections
-read /usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl/doc/manpages/authors.html. This file can be
-found in the docbook-xsl-doc-html package.
-
-Validation can be done using: `xmllint -''-noout -''-valid manpage.xml`
