Multiple biblioid's extra itemref in epub3 spine

[Peter Fleck]

Hi all.

I'm probably doing something silly but here's my problem:
I use the /docbook-xsl-ns-1.78.1/epub3/profile-chunk.xsl/ style sheet in
a custom layer and call

Either --stringparam profile.condition "epub"
or --stringparam profile.condition "mobi"

And it picks the correct /biblioid/ below for use in either the epub or
a second epub for kindlegen.

<biblioid class="other" otherclass="mobi"
condition="mobi">978-------7-</biblioid>
<biblioid class="other" otherclass="epub"
condition="epub">978-------8-</biblioid>
<biblioid class="other" otherclass="print"
condition="print">978--------9-</biblioid>

My problems is that which ever comes second (ie "mobi" or "epub") adds
an extra itemref to the spine in the package.opf. This gives an error like -

ERROR OEBPS/package.opf 62 37 item with id 'id-idp1288160' not found


I can delete these manually but I have an automated script so would
prefer a different solution.
My guess is my Docbook is wrong.

Thanks for your help,

Peter

Hi Peter,

I think you should be using the "profile.xsl" style sheet under the
"profile" directory rather than "epub3/profile-chunk.xsl". Then apply your
epub transformation against the file output by profiling.

I suspect this problem is a side effect of bug #1335

https://sourceforge.net/p/docbook/bugs/1335/

I just checked in a fix for this problem to SVN and the fix appears in
the latest snapshot XSL.
