Yeah, the gnome-doc-tools rpm is available from Dave's site, and not
part of the Red Hat Linux distribution for a couple of reasons.  The
biggest on is that it's a -hack- to work around some things that were
broken in DocBook 3.  At the moment we're working towards using DocBook
4 XML as the standard GDP toolset for docs.  The newest libgnome release
contains a dependancy on libxslt for this very reason.  More details as
soon as we have them.
