Compilation of our Seminar example file fails on updated TL20. The
maintainer of "Seminar" is not planning to fix the core issue and
states the following (in a private email with permission to quote):
it is a problem with the new hook management of the current latex.ltx
seminar is a quite old package and there is no reason to use it with a
new LaTeX format. It won't be fixed, so the usual way is to use the
package latexrealease to get the old hook management.
This commit adds a note to the example files explaining the
workaround of exporting to a .tex file and prepending the following
line:
\RequirePackage[2020-02-02]{latexrelease}
We now invert the relevant tests.
For elements that should behave like sections (for now, mostly prefaces).
A second paragraph of PartBacktext can only wreak havok: it should start a section, and nothing else (otherwise, it's a real nightmare to implement).
In cooperation with Thibaut Cuvelier:
lib/scripts/spreadsheet_to_docbook.py: Strip the document header and convert some flags
lib/xtemplates/gnumeric.xtemplate: use this output to be inserted in docbook5
lib/configure.py: Add needed conversion entries
Preparation to test docbook5 exports
'xhtml_table': Format used for inserting spreadsheet tables in docbook
'pdf9': Result format used by conversion docbook5 with pandoc to create a pdf
This is a minimal implementation, as DocBook lacks a serious way of encoding all of this. Maybe a <formalpara> could do the trick, but I'd need to find a way to shoehorn a title through the styles (i.e. a first complete tag):
Theorem: Bla bla
<formalpara>
<title>Theorem</title>
<para>Bla bla</para>
</formalpara>
This would also only be a solution for single-paragraph things, as formalpara only allows one paragraph. Or a sidebar, but it's semantically very remote.
Includes: semantic markup (sorry about noun: Additional.lyx uses it to mark menus; there is something better in DocBook, but it looks like the LaTeX equivalent is really for person names), boxes, info layouts.
