yes:
<!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" 
                      "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd" [
 <!-- with some entity declaration --> ]>

or
<!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd" [
 <!-- with some entity declaration --> ]> ] >

> What happens if you remove it?
All the 'gobal' entities (copy, amp,...) break... 
adding those... changin the stylesheet to fo/docbook.xsl
setting CatalogManager.properties.verbosity = 100

- xmllint can't validate the source any more
- I still get the network exception:
-----------
     [echo] SAXON -- creating Formating Objects (FO) file dark-sun.fo from book.xml --
     [java] Parse catalog: /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xmlcatalog
     [java] Loading catalog: /etc/xml/catalog
     [java] Default BASE: file:/etc/xml/catalog
     [java] java.net.SocketException: errno: 101, error: Network is unreachable for fd: 5
     [stacktrace ommited]
-----------

The debug messages do not even tell, for which URL / Server it is looking.


Has anyone some working rpm (linux RH 7.0) / tar.gz with 
- docbook-xml-4.2 (maybe 4.1.2)
- oasis entities
- /etc/xml/catalog
  ?

I have no idea, if some file refered in the catalogs is missing, if this is a
xerces error or... I just want to be able to use my docbook stylesheets
_off_-line.

There are three ways to get something done:
(1) Do it yourself.
(2) Hire someone to do it for you.
(3) Forbid your kids to do it.
