I was looking at our currency tonight and there was a problem with docbook. In checking, none of the URLs pointing to the following work: https://www.docbook.org/sgml http://docbook.org/xml These are used to get old packages (around 2005) that I do not think will ever be updated: docbk31.zip docbook-4.5.zip docbook-xml-4.5.zip docbook-5.0.zip We have the files and can just host them on anduin. They all seem to be referenced by a few other packages. One advantage to hosting these files ourselves is that we could easily reformat them to .tar.xz files. However the zip files are not particularly large. All are less than 1 MB. Note that one essential file is docbook-xml-4.5.zip. We need that to render the LFS books. There is another related issue. There are several entries in the xml catalog configuration of docbook-xml-5.0 to 'http://docbook.org/xml/...'. The entries appear to be redirected to /usr/share/xml. It may not matter that those references are present, but I am throwing this out to the list for comment. -- Bruce -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/sympa/info/blfs-dev Unsubscribe: See the above information page
