Description
FOP-0.93 was released on 2007-01-08 (http://www.mail-archive.com/fop-users%40xmlgraphics.apache.org/msg05987.html). This constitutes a major redesign of the software, and although it is expected that many new features and bug fixes are included, it's quite likely that some new issues will also present.
For starters, we need to migrate to at least version 1.70.1 of the docbook-xsl package (latest stable version is 1.71.1). http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/browser/trunk/BOOK/stylesheets/lfs-pdf.xsl#L8 will then need to change to turn on fop1.extensions, not fop.extensions.

The stylesheets are ready on the new-xsl branch. Waiting DB-XSL-1.72.1 to port it to trunk.

Fixed. The new stylesheets make use of FOP-0.93 to render the PDF books.
Other fixes will be needed to can use DB-XSL-1.71.1. I'm waiting BLFS-6.2 release to can start working on the updates.
Plus, DB-XSL-1.72.1 will be released soon, including better fop1 support, thus maybe we should to wait until that release to do the migration.
