It's a transitive dependency: the pdf target is triggered after changes
in svg (or sgml), this triggers the fo targets. Therefore it's not
necessary to have svg (or sgml) dependencies at the fo level.

The variable SVGSRC points to all svg-files, similar to ALLSGML which
points to the sgml files. Whenever any of them changes, certain targets
will fire.

Please help. I haven't understood the distinction between installation
directory and DESTDIR. On the other hand, in the Makefile there is a -
redundant - command within the html-stamp target: $(MKDIR_P) html/svg.
But this will run frequently, which is not necessary.

There is a simple mechanism to create those list of figures: change line
55 of stylesheet-html-common.xsl to "book toc,title,*figure*". But the
result is ugly - see attached screenshot. The list is out-of-line.
Additionally, in the future we will have many figures (and examples and
tables). This will lead to similar problems we actually faced with the
release notes. The proposed solution moves this inflation of lists to
deeper levels of the TOC. We can and have defined theirs layout within
stylesheet-common.xsl.

What is the problem here? Actually I don't have enough time to evaluate
it in deep. If it is an urgent problem (I have seen that the
commitfest-entry is tagged as "release 12") we shall shift the pg_dump
figure to a later release.
I think that the Backup chapter isn't a good place for this because it
does not explain the complete interaction between pg_dump, psql and restore.

Done. (But I hate the use of the minus-signs within any identifier of
any language. For me it's an operator.)

I changed _svg to _figure. I agree that the format is irrelevant. But it
may be of interest, whether it is an id to a text or a figure.
