Re: [docbook-apps] Images do not extract to epub OPF manifest

Hi Dave,

The ANT build file for the Docbook to EPUB transformation:

OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR/frameworks/docbook/xsl/epub/bin/build.xml

was created by us (Oxygen XML Editor) from the original Python scripts 
which were available to transform to EPUB.

We also added some custom processing which indeed, from what I've tested 
does not create a valid OPF file in some cases.

I did not quite manage to reproduce your situation, could you send to 
the Oxygen XML Editor Support email address () a 
sample Docbook project on which the problem can be reproduced.

I'm attaching a modified version of the build file:
OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR/frameworks/docbook/xsl/epub/bin/build.xml

ANT build file which removed some of the custom processing we perform to 
the OPF file (and which sometimes leads to invalid EPUB archives).
Can you copy it over the initial ANT build file and see if your 
situation is corrected?

Regards,
Radu
