Hello! See $SUBJECT for my little problem.
The real fix would be making a port for docbook-xsl (current version 1.68.1, from http://sourceforge.net/projects/docbook/), then making that damn thing calling something like xsltproc --nonet --novalid /somewhere.../manpages/docbook.xsl dia.dbk in w-dia-0.94/dia-0.94/doc/en (perhaps one could convince that configure script to find ../manpages/docbook.xsl by itself; xsltproc would be from the libxslt port/package). A workaround would be substituting a pre-made nroff dia.1 in the patch phase. I'll attach a dia.1 generated in the way mentioned above. Alternatively, instead of putting a file in there from .../files, one could just use the patches mechanism, which is my workaround. patch-doc_en_dia_1 attached, too. Kind regards, Hannah.
