Recently I've been unable to build the documentation intermittently, and I think it's because sourceforge.net has become flakey. Let me try right now... $ make docs XSLTPROC=/usr/bin/xsltproc ...blah blah blah... warning: failed to load external entity "http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/xhtml/chunk.xsl" ...blah blah blah... So, yeah, it looks like we might need a local docbooks installation currently. > It also fails for me if I follow the instructions in the documentation: > > If you use MacPorts, the following will get you set up: > <programlisting> > sudo port install docbook-xml-4.2 docbook-xsl fop > </programlisting> > > I have to also 'port install libxslt'.

I think we should complain to the MacPorts packager about the namespace vs non-namespace stuff being possibly confused in the packages. -- Thomas Munro http://www.enterprisedb.com
