He provided the patch provided below. I'll try to clean up that patch and send it formally to the list tomorrow, but I thought I'd send it to you now so you won't lose time trying to figure this out. With it, the XML file generated by asciidoc from tracef.3.txt (with your patch applied) contains: tracef vtracef LTTng-UST printf(3)-like interface And the resulting filename of the docbook -> man page conversion (the xmlto step) is just tracef.3, since the XSL takes the value of the first refname. This step also magically generates a vtracef.3, which contains: .so tracef.3 ... which just includes the content of tracef.3 when you do `man 3 vtracef`. So that's perfect. All there is left is to adjust the Makefile to: - teach it that vtracef.3 is built from trace.3.xml (the command `make vtracef.3` should work) - `make clean` cleans vtracef.3 - `make install` installs vtracef.3 Simon >From a8c8a25becc18135fda6045da3892e91aa12f795 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Marchi Date: Wed, 5 Feb 2020 21:33:32 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Fix: generation of man pages with multiple refnames --- doc/man/Makefile.am | 6 ++++-- doc/man/asciidoc.conf | 20 -------------------- 2 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/man/Makefile.am b/doc/man/Makefile.am index f562bfd13a66..14aa4be7c82d 100644 --- a/doc/man/Makefile.am +++ b/doc/man/Makefile.am @@ -58,8 +58,10 @@ xmlto_verbose_0 = @echo " XMLTO " $@; # Tools to execute: ADOC = $(asciidoc_verbose)$(ASCIIDOC) -f $(ASCIIDOC_CONF) -d manpage \ - -a lttng_version="$(PACKAGE_VERSION)" \ - -a lttng_ust_register_timeout="@LTTNG_UST_DEFAULT_CONSTRUCTOR_TIMEOUT_MS@" + -a lttng_ust_register_timeout="@LTTNG_UST_DEFAULT_CONSTRUCTOR_TIMEOUT_MS@" \ + -a mansource="LTTng" \ + -a manmanual="LTTng Manual" \ + -a manversion="$(PACKAGE_VERSION)" ADOC_DOCBOOK = $(ADOC) -b docbook XTO = $(xmlto_verbose)$(XMLTO) -m $(XSL_FILE) man diff --git a/doc/man/asciidoc.conf b/doc/man/asciidoc.conf index e3c8016dc3ff..b3c8709d5ead 100644 --- a/doc/man/asciidoc.conf +++ b/doc/man/asciidoc.conf @@ -57,23 +57,3 @@ ifdef::backend-docbook[] NOT endif::backend-docbook[] endif::doctype-manpage[] - -# configure XML man page header -ifdef::doctype-manpage[] -ifdef::backend-docbook[] -[header] -template::[header-declarations] - - -{mantitle} -{manvolnum} -LTTng -{lttng_version} -LTTng Manual - - - {manname} - {manpurpose} - -endif::backend-docbook[] -endif::doctype-manpage[]
