Package: docbook-xsl Version: 1.73.2.dfsg.1-2 Severity: minor
The warning about using /etc/papersize should be in README.Debian, not printed when using the FO output sheet. It is extremely annoying and not at all helpful. Plus, writing to the terminal is very slow compared to actually processing the document.
The Unix way is that if a program has nothing surprising to say, it should say nothing. It is not surprising for Debian to customize a package to use /etc/papersize; in fact, it is surprising when a package has *not* been so customized. Therefore, if you absolutely must display this information, please do so using the bug script that reportbug displays or in README.Debian, not on every processing of the DocBook sheets.
