DocBook XML is superficially compatible with DocBook SGML but has a slightly stricter DTD that we have been violating in a few cases. Although XSLT doesn't care whether the document is valid, the style sheets don't necessarily process invalid documents correctly, so we need to work toward fixing this. This first commit moves the indexterms in refentry elements to an allowed position. It has no impact on the output.

A tablespace can only be dropped by its owner or a superuser.
|
|
The tablespace must be empty of all database objects before it can be
|
|
dropped. It is possible that objects in other databases might still reside
|
|
in the tablespace even if no objects in the current database are using
|
|
the tablespace. Also, if the tablespace is listed in the <xref
|
|
linkend="guc-temp-tablespaces"> setting of any active session, the
|
|
<command>DROP</> might fail due to temporary files residing in the
|
|
tablespace.
