ah, I see. unfortunate, but thanks for clarifying.

question: I am not sure, what the `asciidoc' and(?) `a2x' do to pass latex equations through
docbook/xml to dblatex exactly but that seems to be the only option, then, to get latex math into
pdf output. is there a way to do similar with `asciidoctor'?
