Hi all,

If I have the following fragment in a document:

<figure>
   <title>Picture's Title</title>
   <graphic fileref="images/foo"></graphic>
</figure>

...where I have a  file named foo.eps in the images subdirectory that is
an encapsulated postscript file, I always get the following error message
when I attempt to make a .pdf file with db2pdf:

(/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/psnfss/ts1ptm.fd) [3.0.25] [4.0.25] [5.0.25]
[6.0.25] [7.0.25] [8.0.25]

! LaTeX Error: Unknown graphics extension: .eps.

I'm using the sourceware docbook rpm's:

astyle-1.11.4-1.i386.rpm   libxml-devel-1.8.7-1.i386.rpm
docbook-3.1-5.i386.rpm     jade-1.2.1-4.i386.rpm
psgml-1.2.1-1.i386.rpm     jadetex-2.19-0.i386.rpm
sgml-common-0.1-3.i386.rpm stylesheets-0.10-2.i386.rpm
jadetex-2.7-0.i386.rpm
libxml-1.8.7-1.i386.rpm

Can anyone help me? I haven't got a clue where to start trying to fix
this, but since the <figure> syntax is documented on the linuxdoc HOWTO I
kinda counted on it working. 

Bill
