invoke xsltproc with --nonet argument

[baraclese <> googlemail com]

I'm using Arch Linux and when trying to build my documentation xsltproc fails with errors like

.../trunk/tools/boostbook/dtd/boostbook.dtd:435: warning: failed to load external entity "​http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd"

Using the --nonet option will make xsltproc use the local copies of these files which reside somewhere in /usr/share/xml/docbook/.

It sounds like you don't have boostbook configured correctly.

Okay, I will look into that and then report back.

Any progress here? Can I close this ticket?

My understanding was that --nonet only causes xsltproc to fail directly if it needs a non-local file. To use local copies of files you need to use a catalog file (which the boostbook toolset does). You may need to delete bin.v2/boostboost_catalog.xml after making any changes to user-config.jam.
