I just ran doclifter on all 3 of these man pages and the only warning I got
was about the ../Project file. Please tell me how to reproduce the original
error you're reporting because I'm not seeing it.
Also, how do we fix it so that the content of ../Project is included as it
should be?
OK, I ran Docbook 4.5 on the output from doclifter and I see it's complaining
on one line of slapd.conf.5.xml. It appears doclifter is misinterpreting the
.br request. Instead of inserting a line break it is either ignoring it
completely or doing a paragraph break.
I'm going to reject your submitted patch because it is not the minimal patch
needed to fix the error, nor is the error actually in our manpage source, it
is in the doclifter tool.
