I don't want to be offensive,
but "what the heck" is /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh5/1.75.1/slides/html/frames.xsl ?

Something "incomplete"?

Well, but what was our earlier discussion about than,
and 1.75.x seems to be namespace-aware now
(as I read your lines above as a confirmation of that -- am I confusing things here?!?):

Well, somehow it sounds, as if should stay with 3.4.0,

but then the "quote in title" issue is not fixed in 3.4.0, right?!?


Kind regards,
