Hi,
When I run 'make pdf-fr' I get the error *** cannot build PDFs because dblatex(1) was not found ***.

dblatex is yet installed. The executable is in /usr/bin and this path is in the $PATH variable.
fr XML files are created.
If I run dblatex directly on an xml file, the corresponding pdf file is created...

I use Ubuntu-15.10

What is wrong with 'make pdf'?

Rebuild your Makefile with "configure" or "autogen.sh".

It's better.

But now I have another error: ....

A possible reason for transformation failure is invalid DocBook (as reported by xmllint)

Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory /
What is the valid DocBook ?
docbook-4.5-5, docbook2x-0.8.8.9, docbook-utils are installed.

Same here. "make html-fr", "make pdf-en", and "make pdf-de" worked, "make pdf-fr" failed.

Maybe this is related to the "Compatibility with the french package" problem mentioned in the babel user guide (try "texdoc babel")?

"make pdf-fr" works under OpenSuse-LEAP-42.1! It does not work under Ubuntu-15.10 and 1.04. That looks like a problem with Ubuntu. Which OS did you use to test?

openSUSE-13.2, but self-built dblatex-0.3.7 and the Tex Live-2015 DVD from http://tug.org/texlive/ instead of openSUSE's packages.

I don't understand the relation with Babel.

'lang="fr"' in the French gimp.xml file seemed to be the problem.

The babel user guide reads:

"4.3 Compatibility with the french package It has been reported to me that the package french by Bernard Gaulle (gaulle@idris.fr) works together with babel. On the other hand, it seems not to work well together with a lot of other packages. Therefore I have decided to no longer load french.ldf by default. Instead, when you want to use the package by Bernard Gaulle, you will have to request it specifically, by passing either frenchle or frenchpro as an option to babel."

'frenchle' and 'frenchpro' are obsolete, but there's a package named 'babel-french'. When I installed that package *and* changed the dblatex language file:

--- /usr/share/dblatex/xsl/lang.xsl 2015-08-07 ... +++ /usr/share/dblatex/xsl/lang.xsl 2015-12-08 ... @@ -106,7 +106,7 @@

Note that my solution worked for me, but that does not mean that it's the correct/best/only way. You should first check how it works under openSUSE-Leap, e.g. check /path/to/dblatex/.../lang.xsl, check which babel or french package are installed, etc. Maybe there's a much better way (without patching dblatex).

And remember that I bypassed the openSUSE package system, I'm using a Tex Live DVD. All *I* had to do was "tlmgr install babel-french"...

I recommend that you install the proper Ubuntu (or Debian?) package, e.g.

http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/texlive-lang-french or
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/texlive-lang-french

Alternatively you can try to just follow the instructions. Set TEXMF to ~/.texmf and install the files:

luatex frenchb.ins TEXMF=~/.texmf
mkdir -vp $TEXMF/{tex,source,doc}/generic/babel-french cp -pv frenchb.{ldf,lua} $TEXMF/tex/generic/babel-french cp -pv frenchb.{dtx,ins} $TEXMF/source/generic/babel-french cp -pv frenchb.pdf README $TEXMF/doc/generic/babel-french

Look easy. :) Good luck! ;)

I managed to get the stack to genreate ODF's (Open Docuement Files) to work during last year - in an old install - and it was quite some work on a fedora system. Not sure if I'd still be able to do it on my new system. At the end of the process I had to manually open (unzip and edit the xml) the generated file to fix something (character encoding related)

I think PDF's are easier to get by - not sure if it would work out-of-the box here as well.

So it seems that all you have to do is to install the proper package from your distribution (e.g. texlive-lang-french or babel-french).

I was a bit curious inspired by this discussion, and tried to make a pdf file. Near the same result as Julien got:

Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory Makefile:1492: recipe for target 'pdf/nn/gimp.pdf' failed make: *** [pdf/nn/gimp.pdf] Error 1

I am running this using CygWin 64 on Windows 7 Home. All the modules not found are installed. "make validate-nn" returns no errors. Making HTML files works as expected. To be on the safe side I also run autogen.sh with parameters. No errors. I tried both "make pdf" and "make pdf-nn". Same result.

I have no plans building pdf files for this help, so there is no reason using time to fix this. As said, I am just curious. If needed, I think I am able to make pdf files from the HTML files. Mostly I write this to tell that there at least is one more having problems with the "make pdf" command.

Unfortunately no. texlive-lang-french has been installed from a long tme and babel-french is unknown in my system.

Hmpff. Ok: Under openSUSE all you have to is ...

I tried to make pdf-fr under Debian and failed. But after installing

texlive-tetex

it worked! (I did not yet try Norwegian pdf, though.) texlive-tetex seems to be necessary for creating some fonts or so (I don't care, see /var/lib/texmf/web2c/xetex/...)
