I installed a bunch of docbook rpm packages from Redhat Linux 7.1, which have
all the relevant DTD's and xsltproc, but I still could not figure out
how to run xsltproc to generate the html file.

These are the rpm's I have, straight from Red Hat:

% rpm -qa | egrep 'docbook|xsl|xml|gml'

libxml-1.8.9-4
docbook-style-dsssl-1.59-10
sgml-common-0.6.3-7
docbook-dtd40-sgml-1.0-11
docbook-dtd41-sgml-1.0-10
docbook-utils-0.6-13
docbook-dtd31-sgml-1.0-10
xml-common-0.6.3-7
docbook-dtd412-xml-1.0-9
libxslt-1.0.1-3
docbook-dtd41-xml-1.0-7
docbook-dtd30-sgml-1.0-10
libxml2-2.4.12-1

In docbook-dtd41-sgml-1.0-10, I have:
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/sgml-dtd-4.1/docbook.dtd

So what do I do with xsltproc?
