make pdfdocs problem

[carbonated beverage]

Hi all,

	The `make pdfdocs' target still fails for me on the
`writing_usb_drivers' document.  There's one small bug in it, and one
problem I haven't figured out yet.

	There is a malformed <literal>blah<literal> sequence, where the
closing tag is instead an opening tag.  Patch for that below.

	Also, when the TeX back-end runs, for some reason, ConTeX seems
to get referenced and I get this (trimmed):

! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [save size=5000].

But when I generate it manually from the sgml file that was generated, i.e.:
jade -t tex -d /usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.9/docbook-utils.dsl
 -i print -o foo.tex ../Documentation/DocBook/writing_usb_driver.sgml
jadetex foo.tex

I get a proper dvi file.

Converting to RTF also works:

jade -t rtf -d /usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.9/docbook-utils.dsl
 -i print -o foo.rtf Documentation/DocBook/writing_usb_driver.sgml 

Anyone have ideas?

Try to increase the capacities. You just need to
edit the file
	/etc/texmf/texmf.cnf

Sorry, I wasn't clear.  Every time it fails to find a font, it slaps
a backslash on the beginning of it and tries again, and keeps going
until it consumes all of TeX's memory pool.  So something either in the
DocBook utilities in Debian's broken, or the DocBook-related material
in the kernel.

Thanks, I've applied this patch, and fixed up a missing </para> tag in
that file too.
