some footnotes not being displayed
Dear all,
Here I am again with another question. I'm using fop 1.93beta, with a snapshot
of the docbook-xsl stylesheets.
Everything is working quite well, except that I am including xrefs as footnotes,
and some footnotes do not appear at all. I can't really see why, because most of
them work well.
Can anyone give me any help?
The pdf, fo file and xsl customisations are all to be found here:
http://mdke.org/tmp/fop
An example of a footnote which does not appear is at page 9 of the file. If you
go forward to page 11 of the file, you'll see some which work.
I get some warnings when building, but I don't know if they are related or not:
http://fop.pastebin.com/728145
Thanks for any help you can give me!
Matt

Ok, filed! I've included a much smaller document.

Let me know if I can add anything.

Yes: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/bugs.html#issues_new
Thanks for entering the bug. That way it won't get lost.

Personally, I'd suggest you try a work-around because I'm quite busy
this week. No idea if anyone else has time to look into it. I don't
think it's an easy fix, or at least easy to isolate, because footnote
handling is not trivial. Having a good test case is instrumental in
finding the problem quickly. Usually, this is step is 60% to fixing a bug.

Ok, thanks for letting me know. Is there a bug tracking system of some kind?

That should be quite easy - do you know what the time frame might be for fixing
this? If it is potentially quite quick, then I'll make providing a cut down
document a priority. Otherwise, I'll concentrate on working round by including
the links in the main text rather than in the footnotes, because we need the
PDFs to be released in about a week. After that I will have more time to sit
down and provide as much debugging help as I can.

Confirmed. Seems to be a bug. Unfortunately, I won't have time
immediately to have a closer look.
If your document could be cut down to the minimum so the disappearing
footnote can still be reproduced, that'd be great.
