Only for languages up to and including Japanese (see below). A number
of languages currently have no installation manual there.

The problem is that the Korean build is failing on www-master; a
partial log from a manual run:

<log>
xelatex -interaction=batchmode install.ko.profiled.tex
kpathsea:make_tex: Invalid fontname `나눔명조/OT', contains '<EB>'
...
xelatex failed
install.ko.profiled.tex:29: ..............................................  
install.ko.profiled.tex:29: leading text: \setCJKmainfont{나눔명조}
...
.:300: leading text: }&
/home/adsb/installation-guide-20190622/build/build.tmp.ko.i386/dblatex/tmpwMvRmH not removed

A possible reason for transformation failure is invalid DocBook
(as reported by xmllint)

Error: xelatex compilation failed
Error: build of pdf failed with error code 1
Info: creating temporary .html file...
Info: creating .txt file...
Warning: The following formats failed to build: pdf
Makefile:8: recipe for target 'ko.i386' failed
make: *** [ko.i386] Error 2
</log>

buildweb.sh uses "set -e", so the failing Korean build causes the
script to abort, and the example-preseed.txt is never generated.

The build script on www-master, conversely, simply continues and
deploys whatever has been built up to that point.
