A note on the above for Gentoo GNU/Linux users:
The following command will get you version 1.68.1-r1, which is the
version I have at the moment.
emerge app-text/docbook-xsl-stylesheets
If you edit your "/etc/portage/package.keywords" file and unmask the
package with the following line:
app-text/docbook-xsl-stylesheets ~x86
then the above "emerge" command will install/overwrite with the
lastest available x86 testing version (currently 1.69.1).
You can undo this by removing the package unmask line from the
"/etc/portage/portage.keywords" file, and re-running "emerge", which
will install/overwrite with the latest stable version (currently
1.68.1-r1).
