That would explain the trouble you see. I don't get that same error you see, so I can't say for sure if a system update does fix it. But it appears it might. I think also you should consider installing the gnome-doc-utils package I have, and check your xlst packages: $ rpm -qa | grep xsl libxslt-devel-1.1.17-2.el5_1.1 openoffice.org-xsltfilter-2.3.0-6.5.1.el5_2 docbook-style-xsl-1.69.1-5.1 libxslt-1.1.17-2.el5_1.1 pj -- Paul E.
