Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Mailing-List: contact cygwin-help AT cygwin DOT com; run by ezmlm List-Subscribe: List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: , Sender: cygwin-owner AT cygwin DOT com Mail-Followup-To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Delivered-To: mailing list cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Hi, I believe I'm up-to-date with xmlto and DocBook on Cygwin. Still, I was unable to build either the user's guide or the FAQ from sources. Part of the problem was a bug in doctool.c (for which I'll send a patch to cygwin-patches shortly). However, even with that bug fixed, I got the following error: I/O error : Attempt to load network entity http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd /usr/src/cygwin-cvs/build/i686-pc-cygwin/winsup/doc/cygwin-ug-net.sgml:3: warning: failed to load external entity "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd"[]> ^ (with a bunch of other errors about undefined entities, which, I believe, followed from the above). I traced this down to the /usr/bin/xmlto, which invokes xsltproc with the --nonet option. A question to the xmlto maintainer: is there a particular reason this option is being used? Obviously somebody was able to successfully build the FAQ and User's guide. Was this using Cygwin? If so, what versions of xmlto and the various DocBook packages were used?
