Hi libxslt authors, Some time ago I already reported this issue [1], but it seems I forgot to examine it further. Today I got a private mail about the same problem so I decided to find a testcase to debug the problem and I was able to create a very short example, that fails for me with an I/O. Can you please be so kind to take a look at it and verify, if it's a bug in libxslt? In this case I would open a bug report. Please follow these steps after saving the attached files: mkdir built-doc xsltproc --output ./built-doc/ book.xsl book.xml The result for me is: Writing ch01.html for chapter Writing index.html for book I/O error : Is a directory I/O error : Is a directory The problem seems to be related to the --output option and the doctype-* attributes of xsl:output, because if you don't use --output option or remove the doctype-* attributes, then the example does not fail. I'm working with a recent Debian Sid (docbook-xsl 1.73.2, libxslt 1.1.22, libxml2 2.6.30). CCed docbook-apps for the case, it is caused by the docbook-xsl stylesheets and their authors can help [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/xslt gnome org/msg00897.html Regards, Daniel
