NOTES

update-xmlcatalog is the de-facto standard tool to be used to maintain catalog files on a Debian system, similar to that update-catalog(8) is the standard tool to be used to main catalog files on a Debian system. A Debian Policy document to this effect is currently under development.

update-xmlcatalog and xmlcatalog(1) are incompatible. The former has an internal database of all the entries in all the

catalog files it maintains and regenerates the indicated catalog file completely from scratch upon an update. The latter updates the indicated catalog file directly. This means that any change made to an catalog file using xmlcatalog(1) is overwritten the next time that catalog file is updated using update-xmlcatalog.
