Hi,
I now see this as a bug. I think this was caused by my post-bookworm change in
debian-reference (2.109) on Mon, 18 Dec 2023.
If I remember correctly, the intent of this change was to move all
HTML/PDF/Plain_Text document to a path under /usr/share/doc/ for better policy
compliance.

I belive debian wants to provide its documentation as packages in stable
releases.
But currently debian-reference is scheduled for auto removal on 2025-04-15
(which this mail bumps a bit into the future).
Maybe "nobody" is aware of this?
Anyone up to taking a look at this?

Thanks very much for this. I was hoping it would end up packaged (even if

Hi,
Has anyone any advice on how to build the Reference Card[1] from source?

download "http://db2latex.sourceforge.net/xsl/docbook.xsl";, but now it
fails:

lable documentation in Debian,
what I believe you miss is something like "New to Debian?" that points people
to documentation they should read first, this includes: the installation
manual, the FAQ and the Debian Reference.
Maybe the support page (www.debian.org/support) should list these

Your observation is som
I have been taking a lot of interest in the Reference recently, as a
result of time on d-u and #debian, and seeing where we fall short from a

will avoid other flamewars and misunderstandigs.
But atleast the flamewar was not completly use
