+ linuxdoc-tools 0.9.73, build 5.
+ Stuart Winter <mozes@slackware.com>
+  * gnome-doc-tools: Make '/usr/bin/xml2po' and its accompanying Python module
+    build against Python3.
+    Thanks to bassmadrigal and ponce on LQ for the report and the patch.
+  * docbook2x: Removed '--disable-maintainer-mode' configuration flag
+    because it's no longer valid.
