[Scons-dev] New SCons doc toolchain...

[Gary Oberbrunner]

Works much better now.  I re-cloned and installed fop and now it builds.  I
do get some errors about the bricks SVG file:

SEVERE: svg graphic could not be built:
file:/home/user/src/scons_doc_toolchain/doc/design/titlepage/SConsBuildBricks_path.svg:0
The URI
"file:/home/dirk/workspace/docs/scons/xincluded_userguide/user/titlepage/bricks.jpg"
on element <image> can't be opened because:
The URI can't be opened:
/home/dirk/workspace/docs/scons/xincluded_userguide/user/titlepage/bricks.jpg
(No such file or directory)

and various warnings about paragraphs overflowing their space, but it does
all build OK.

Bill: the new User Guide has a ToC but no index.  I put a copy at
http://www.oberbrunner.com/temp/scons-user.pdf and
http://www.oberbrunner.com/temp/scons-man.pdf.
