is not possible to install PB themes and plugins without composer?
It is possible, but Dac’s instructions were for Thomas who was trying to use Composer and having issues with the process.
because i´m having some problems updating.
I will delete all themes and I will try again.
Do I just need pressbooks-book and Aldine themes?
You need Pressbooks Book and Aldine. If you want any other themes you can install them.

Just tested this and it works properly for me.
It was some plugin compatibility, maybe. Now i´m testing in a place with as few plugins as possible (information in the end of the message):
Each time I try to create a new book, I receive that warming
I can see the cover page, but I can not to se the admin page
Also the information about how to create the title of a book is not the same. In one place we can have hyphens and in the other place we can not…

From the code comment:
To bypass this check, define PB_ROOT_THEME to the name of your custom root theme in wp-config.php.
So:
define('PB_ROOT_THEME', 'pressbooks-aldine' );`
In your wp-config should fix your existing version.
Updating to dev branch is preferable.

theme book: the TOC is over the Previous section buttom
Can you collapse the TOC? It’s a dropdown menu so there are some circumstances where it is going to overlap content no matter what.
I can collapse, yes. But maybe if the layer of the previos section buttom is on top, we can have a better workflow.
I would disagree. If a user has expanded the Table of Contents, they are focusing on that element of the UI. Having other elements in front of it would be annoying. This is also in keeping with how things work in the old webbook theme:
I see. You have a point. yes.
the license is twice in the cover page. Should be like that?

Yes. The Book Information section provides a minimal overview of information about the book, and contributors while the Metadata section will include all metadata available.
As in the other places, I think a way to collapse the content would be a good idea. anyway.
There is an issue about the css
Next section and previous section some times are not in the footer.
It’s a responsive design. When text is zoomed in (your bottom screenshot is zoomed in to 200%) the navigation controls move to the bottom so that they don’t overlap the text. This isn’t a bug.
