Hi,

Looks very similar to #310148. Do you still follow the work flow? Should
I try to figure, which piece of software is the root cause and
eventually report this bug to upstream?

Thanks,
Hilmar

This error is occuring when I try to compile a document written in
DocBook XML. I was able to reproduce this with the Sample XML DocBook
document provided by the Linux Documentation Project :

http://www.tldp.org/authors/template/Sample-HOWTO.xml

To compile this document, I use :

$ xmlto ps Sample-HOWTO.xml

I then get the following error.
! LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.
...

l.5 ...er.optimum="1em" space-after.maximum="2em">
<fo:block xmlns:fo="http:/...

?
! Emergency stop.

l.5 ...er.optimum="1em" space-after.maximum="2em">
<fo:block xmlns:fo="http:/...

No pages of output.
Exactly the same thing happens when I try to generate a dvi file.
