requires: perl 
sdesc: "DocBook XML 5.0 distribution"
ldesc: "DocBook is a schema (available in several languages including RELAX NG, SGML and XML DTDs, and W3C XML Schema)
maintained by the DocBook Technical Committee of OASIS. It is particularly well suited to books and papers about
computer hardware and software (though it is by no means limited to these applications)."
