Bug#713777: refcard: FTBFS: (xmlroff:15778)

[Osamu Aoki <osamu@debian.org>]

Hi,

PDF building is suffering.  These should bu most likely texlive and
xmlroff/cairo backend.

Hmmmm... its tough ...no easy way out.

Lucas, have you checked how many of these PDF build errors out there?

I do not see much XML activity.  So it will be difficult to fix these
and not much people ...  Maybe time to cut back to HTML only.

I am getting a bit sick of building pdf in non-english languages.

They are so fragile.

Osamu
