'apt-cache rdepends sisu-complete' shows that live-manual is the 
last/only dependency for SiSU.

I see 3 options:
1) Abandon SiSU in favour of some other format, e.g. asciidoc or 
markdown (each has po4a-support)
2) Wait for or help SiSU with the release of a Ruby 3-compatible version
3) Remove live-manual from the Debian repository and keep only the 
git-based most recent version

I'm tempted to go for option 3.
What's your opinion?

With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
