Docbook stylesheet and tables, FOP error

Question

I've never experienced this error since I use Docbook. I've looked it up and found out that this error was fixed earlier in the past (and also I gave a try to do the same steps as it was explained). Unfortunately, I haven't managed to fix it on my own yet.

Here is the error message that FOP gives:

WARNING: The following feature isn't implemented by Apache FOP, yet: table-layout="auto" (on fo:table) (See position 2:182518)
2011.10.19. 11:19:37 org.apache.fop.events.LoggingEventListener processEvent SEVERE: Invalid property value encountered in column-width="proportional-column- width(1)": org.apache.fop.fo.expr.PropertyException:
file:/c:/fajlok/teszt/book.fo:2:182518: proportional-column-width() function may only be used when fo:table has table-layout="fixed".; property:'column-width' (See position 2:182598)

file:/c:/fajlok/teszt/book.fo:2:182518: proportional-column-width() function may only be used when fo:table has table-layout="fixed".; property:'column-width'

Basically it notifies me that in FOP hasn't been implemented the table-layout="auto" feature yet.

Forgot to mention that I use the latest snapshot of FOP and also the latest xml stylesheet (1.76.0). — Roland Burda
Issue solved! If you got this issue, you have just to change the 'fop1.extensions' param value to '1' in the fo/param.xsl. — Roland Burda
You should submit the "Issue solved!" comment as an answer (a little later you can accept it). See blog.stackoverflow.com/2011/07/…. — mzjn

I can't confirm that the warning isn't seen when fop1.extensions is set to "1".

My stylesheet contains

<xsl:param name="fop1.extensions" select="1"/>

And still I get

The following feature isn't implemented by Apache FOP, yet: table-layout="auto" (on fo:table) (See position 1362:428)

I am using fop version 1:1.0.dfsg2-6 (debian sid)
