Im having problems trying to convert my docbook 2 postscript. I think
the problem may even be in the initial conversion to tex.

I can convert to html with no problems as long as I designate the xml.dcl file.
Here are my error messages:

docbook2ps --dcl /usr/share/sgml/xml.dcl progress.sgml
Using catalogs: /etc/sgml/catalog
Using stylesheet: /usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.14/docbook-utils.dsl#print
Working on: /home/nathan/docs/xml/progress
.sgml
jade:/usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.14/docbook-utils.dsl:475:2:E:
too many arguments for function
dvips: ! DVI file can't be opened.
rm: cannot remove `progress.dvi': No such file or directory

Any thoughts?
While I'm at it, does anyone know a way I can specify the xml.dcl file
to be the default?

This carriage return is strange. Have you an embedded carriage return in your 
file name ?

Strange.

Have a
	<?xml version="1.0" ?>
at the beginning of your file.


And while we are at it : I noticed that there are still emails like
	Eric Bischoff <eric@caldera.de>
in some files. Can someone please replace them with
	Éric Bischoff <ebischoff@nerim.net>
or with some email of the current maintainers ?
