I just had the impression that the dir structure at the moment will
end up
in a very big /usr/share in the future. But other packages will do.
/usr/bin is very big now and there is no problem :-).
Common practice is to place architecture-independent data into
/usr/share/<package> directory. My current docbook packages follows
this practice.
Is
there
a recommended way to do?

Hmmm, thaks for pointing this out ;) Overlooked it somehow. And this
will be
maintained if other dtd packages will be installed?
AFAICT, yes.
BTW I just checked the xmlto site and a newer version is released on
May
09th.
Yes, I know. There is also new XSL package (1.61.0) available. If I get
some free time I'll package it...
At the moment I try to tie a passivetex package (size is ~1.3M).
Great. I'm newbie in TeX stuff. My attempt to install passivetex and
xmltex was not successful... :-(
Unfortunately I don´t have server access to provide that package for

reviewing. Would it be an option to pass it to you when it is ready?
The man
pages for xmlto says that it could widen its output capability with
passivetex...
Yes.
Thank you.
