[PATCH 3/6] Doc: drop support for docbook-xsl before 1.73.0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Drop the DOCBOOK_XSL_172 config knob, which was needed with docbook-xsl
1.72 (but neither 1.71 nor 1.73). Version 1.73.0 is more than twelve
years old.

Together with the last few commits, we are now at a point where we don't
have any Makefile knobs to cater to old/broken versions of docbook-xsl.
