Package: docbook-xsl Version: 1.76.1+dfsg-1 I ran into this problem while using docbook-xsl and fop (and also dblatex) to generate a PDF for the translated version of the Free Culture book by Lawrence Lessig. See <URL: https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig/> for the complete source of that project.
The indexterm sorting order is wrong for the nb language choice when using docbook-xsl and dblatex. See the included docbook file for an example demonstrating the sorting, and the correct sorting order. This sorting order make both docbook-xsl and dblatex unfit for typesetting a Norwegian book. :( I've already reported a similar problem with dblatex, so this bug report is about the docbook-xsl manifestation. :) <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd";> <!-- The nb indexterm sorting order should be "Alle inne", "Bare tull", "Ærlig talt", "Øvrigheta", "Åndalsnes" under separete letter "A", "B", "Æ", "Ø" and "Å". But docbook-xsl sort it Symboler: Ærlig talt A Alle inne Åndalsnes B Bare tull O Øvrigheten while dblatex sort it like this (note the underscore as the "letter" for symbols): _ Ærlig talt Øvrigheten Åndalsnes A Alle inne B Bare tull Both sorting orders are wrong. --> <book lang="nb"> <bookinfo> <title>Example demonstrating wrong nb indexterm sorting</title> </bookinfo> <preface> <title>test</title> <indexterm><primary>Alle inne</primary></indexterm> <para>test</para> <indexterm><primary>Ærlig talt</primary></indexterm> <indexterm><primary>Øvrigheten</primary></indexterm> <indexterm><primary>Åndalsnes</primary></indexterm> <para>text is good</para> <indexterm><primary>Bare tull</primary></indexterm> <para>text is great</para> </preface> <index></index> </book> -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
