| No, I did not get any warning messages. My run outputs:

| Resolved file:///usr/local/docbook/style/xsl/1.29/fo/docbook.xsl as
| file:/usr/local/docbook/style/xsl/1.29/fo/docbook.xsl

The paper.type parameter :-) You can set it to A4 if you prefer.
(Actually, if anyone cares, I greatly prefer A4, but it's not commonly
available on this side of the pond.)

You should have gotten the warnings from FOP, not the stylesheets.
