[publican-list] Fedora: Brand not honoured in PDF

[Jeff Fearn]

This is because publican dropped support for FOP a couple of years back,
and deprecated it quite a few years before that. Some brands never
updated to use wkhtmltopdf or to update their pdf.xsl to include all the
customization dropped from publican.

You will need to talk to the brand maintainers to updated their brands
to either carry the dropped XSL of to include a wkhtmltopdf compatible
brand.

FYI the fedora docs infra still uses an ancient version of publican,
which is why they have FOP support without updating their pdf.xsl, but
out of date branding.

FWIW I did try and get the tool chain and site updated, but failed :(
