make pdf fails

Running make pdf fails with the following error:

Makefile:2021: warning: overriding recipe for target 'lib/doc/bin/docproc'

This issue is caused by commit 5595cca
This seems to be caused by Jade not supporting Unicode-4 that Docbook 4.4 introduced.

Thanks for reporting the issue. But I cannot reproduce it, albeit I had to change the invocation from db2pdf to docbook2pdf $ rpm -qf /usr/bin/docbook2pdf docbook-utils-0.6.14-241.2.noarch With this change, I can create the PDF nicely. Can you check: - is docbook2pdf present on your system? - if yes, change configure.ac to AC_PATH_PROG([DB2PDF], [docbook2pdf]) AC_PATH_PROG([DB2PS], [docbook2ps]) - run autoreconf -i - ./configure - make pdf Thanks

This issue is caused by commit 5595cca This seems to be caused by openjade not supporting Unicode-4 that Docbook 4.4 introduced.

Ciao Stephan

I tried the steps you suggested but it still fails for me with the same error.

$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/docbook2pdf
docbook-utils-pdf-0.6.14-60.fc40.noarch

1. cleaned up repository
2. changed configure.ac as you mentioned
3. ran $ autoreconf -i && ./configure && make pdf
   got the same error. I am using f40, the same error happens on c10s and probably on fedora rawhide too

Uhm, now I am unsure how to handle that. You said you found the offending character? Perhaps we can replace it? Ciao Stephan

I already reported this in the Fedora Bugzilla against docbook-utils, but it seems to be a tricky bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2258240

It might be best to stick with an older Docbook schema or to switch to a different format.
