Since LFS started using docbook-1.78.1, there is a lot of unused data
in the stylesheet directory. Basically, a whole docbook-stylesheet is there, while we need only fo and xhtml (+ some common dirs). Each time we checkout the repo, we have to download this whole thing, which is by far the biggest part of the repo (~33 M). By removing unused cruft, this could be down to ~12 M. Of course, it would be even better to remove completely the stylesheets and use host ones (repo size down to 2M). but let's do this first, it is easier :) git-svn-id: http://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/LFS/trunk/BOOK@11778 4aa44e1e-78dd-0310-a6d2-fbcd4c07a689

-<para>Every man page generated using the DocBook stylesheets has a
-title line, specified using the <literal>TH</literal> roff
-macro. Within that title line, there is always, at a minimum, a title,
-followed by a section value (representing a man "section" -- usually
-just a number).</para>
-
-<para>The title and section are displayed, together, in the visible
-header of each page. Where in the header they are displayed depends on
-OS the man page is viewed on, and on what version of nroff/groff/man
-is used for viewing the page. But, at a minimum and across all
-systems, the title and section are displayed on the right-hand column
-of the header. On many systems -- those with a modern groff, including
-Linux systems -- they are displayed twice: both in the left and right
-columns of the header.</para>
-
-<para>So if the length of the title exceeds a certain percentage of
-the column width in which the page is viewed, the left and right
-titles can end up overlapping, making them unreadable, or breaking to
-another line, which doesn't look particularly good.</para>
-
-<para>So the stylesheets provide the
-<parameter>man.th.title.max.length</parameter> parameter as a means
-for truncating titles that exceed the maximum length that can be
-viewing properly in a page header.</para>
-
-<para>The default value is reasonable but somewhat arbitrary. If you
-have pages with long titles, you may want to experiment with changing
-the value in order to achieve the correct aesthetic results.</para>
