DOCBOOK: On using international support in DocBook

[Xenitellis S <S dot Xenitellis at rhbnc dot ac dot uk>]

Hello All,
I have been trying today to enable/add Greek support to DocBook.
I read the FAQ at www.docbook.org <http://www.docbook.org>  and followed the
instruction to translate the messages
in the local language.

I enable the local language with "<book lang="el">.

I tried "db2html" and I could get Greek just fine.

However, when I tried with .dvi output, LaTex was complaining all the time.
It said that I hadn't installed Greek in Babel (LaTex multilingual support).
My Greek sample .tex files work and produce correct output.

At the end there is a sample of the error messages.

I fiddled with the DocBook for several hours, changing stuff from all over
the place
but with no result. 

	I am using the RPM version of Jade and my best explanation is that I
need to "compile" some
of those initialisation files of JadeTex. By default there is support for
english (us/uk), french and german.

Gone to sleep,
Bye
