A further step toward getting rid of the DSSSL tool chain requirement, here is a patch to change the generation of the text INSTALL file to use XLST and Pandoc.
The change to Pandoc is not essential to this change, but it creates much better looking output and simplifies the locale/encoding handling over using Lynx.
Yeah, that seems a lot more clean than using Lynx.
We'll need to get Pandoc installed on borka and check that that version works as well as the one I have been using.
Borka being a standard debian jessie install has Pandoc 1.12.4.2~dfsg-1+b14. Should be no problem installing that.
I ran a "make INSTALL" on a jessie box, and it comes out with some formatting still in the file, see attachment. That seems incorrect.
