The image "Figure 1: Buildcore targets" is truncated at the upper and the right
edges in the pdf version of the cdbs documentation manual.
When building the pdf documentation, from the dot file first an eps image gets
built, which subsequently is converted to an pdf image, which finally is
integrated into the pdf manual by dblatex. The eps image looks fine (using gv),
but the pdf image is truncated (using xpdf).
I don't know why the eps->pdf image conversion fails, but an alternative way of
integrating the image into the manual is possible:
As dblatex also can handle png images, just convert the dot file to a png image
(as in the html build). Advantages:
- - Works without image truncation
- - One less conversion step
- - Same method in html and pdf build
