Assistance needed with build of gnumeric's documentation
I'm trying to build a new gnumeric package so that it will work with the
latest libgal. Gnumeric's documentation is in DocBook format and is
formatted as HTML for use with the GNOME help system.
Unfortunately, I got stuck at a difference between the way our SGML packages
worked in the past and the way they do now. Here is the relevant part of the
diff between the build log of the previous gnumeric upload (as built on a
system that was up to date on Sat Sep 15) and the build log produced with an
up to date unstable system:
make[4]: Entering directory `/extra/ray/gnumeric/gnumeric-0.70/doc/C'

(and so on for numerous other elements)
The resulting HTML files are not usable with the GNOME help system. There is
no mention of "png-support" in unstable's Contents-i386, and the only
references I've found on the web, like http://www.labs.redhat.com/png/,
suggest that current releases of DocBook should have no problems with PNG
support.
I'm at a loss as to how to fix this, so I'd strongly appreciate suggestions
on how to get gnumeric's documentation to build properly again.
