BLFS experimental code

Hi

Starting playing with the blfs code in experimental

It ran packages.sh ok and created a packages file, but when
I then run 
blfs-parser.sh it errors, complaining that it cant find the
external entity

=====
        Using gnome-core as the target package.

        No dependencies level has been defined.
        Assuming level 2 (Required plus Recommended).

        Generating gnome-core dependencies tree ...warning:
failed to 
load external entity 
"..//home/david/lfs/svn/BLFSSVN/BOOK/gnome/core/config
.xml"
unable to parse
..//home/david/lfs/svn/BLFSSVN/BOOK/gnome/core/config.xml
=====

even though the file exists at /home/david/lfs......

Why is the absolute location from the packages file being
prefixed with 
../ ?

Does the script need to be run from a certain location
relative to my 
copy of the svn for the BLFS book ?

Or am I missing something obvious 

Thanks

DaveM

Due that we need to use relative paths in the XSL and
XInclude code.

Yes. The BLFS sources directory must be placed in the same
directory where you 
should to copy the files under jhalfs-X/BLFS. For example:

macanasandbox:~/test/BLFS$ ls
alternatives.conf  blfs-xml  packages  blfs-parser.sh    
libs      
packages.sh  

Here "blfs-xml" is the BLFS sources directory.
You must to use that directory 
name due that it's hardcoded in book.xsl for now.
