I'm running into some weird issues related to anything that relies upon DocBook 4.1.2.  I've seen this on a couple of other ports, but I will use gtk-doc as the example.  'sudo port install gtk-doc' results in:

When I look in /opt/local/etc/xml/catalog, it does have an entry for DocBook 4.1.2 :

<snip>
<?xml version=" 1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE catalog PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD Entity Resolution XML Catalog V1.0//EN" " http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/entity/release/1.0 /catalog.dtd ">
<catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog">
  <nextCatalog catalog="/opt/local/share/xml/docbook/4.1.2/catalog.xml"/>
  <nextCatalog catalog="/opt/local/share/xml/docbook/4.2/catalog.xml"/>
  <nextCatalog catalog="/opt/local/share/xsl/docbook-xsl/catalog.xml"/>
  <nextCatalog catalog="/opt/local/share/xml/docbook/4.3/catalog.xml"/>
  <nextCatalog catalog="/opt/local/share/xml/docbook/4.4/catalog.xml"/>
  <nextCatalog catalog="/opt/local/share/xml /docbook/4.5/catalog.xml"/>
  <public publicId="-//OMF//DTD Scrollkeeper OMF Variant V1.0//EN" uri="/opt/local/share/xml/scrollkeeper/dtds/scrollkeeper- omf.dtd"/>
</catalog>
</snip>
 
However, /opt/local/share/xml/docbook/4.1.2/catalog.xml does not exist.  I'm a newbie to MacPorts so if there is something obvious I'm missing, please don't smack me up side the head too hard.  I'll do that myself.
 
Also, I see that there is a 'docbook-xml-412' port as opposed to 'docbook-xml-4.1.2' but it's info says it is depreciated so I'm assuming I shouldn't be using that.
 
Thanks!
