[Koha-devel] Failed to load external entity docbook.xsl when building Koha package

[David Cook]

Hi all,

I already talked to Aleisha about this on IRC, but I figured I'd mention it here too.

I emailed last week with a subject line of "debian/control out of date in master". That's what caused the problem that Aleisha mentioned below.

I resolved the issue by stealing the control file out of the 22.11.01 Debian packages and sticking that into my local git. 

But we need to update the master and at least the 22.11.x branch. The 22.11.02 tag should also have an updated control file.

I imagine as the year goes on, more people are going to try to build 22.11 and run into this same problem due to the outdated debian/control file...

Subject: [Koha-devel] Failed to load external entity docbook.xsl when building Koha package

Hello all

We're running into an error when trying to build Koha debian packages. 
It's toward the end of the build-git-snapshot output and starts with this:

xsltproc --output
/build/koha-22.11.01.000+xxx+20230117170120.52134d4b/debian/tmp/debian/tmp_docbook/
\
     /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl-ns/manpages/docbook.xsl \
     debian/docs/*.xml
warning: failed to load external entity "/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl-ns/manpages/docbook.xsl"
cannot parse
/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl-ns/manpages/docbook.xsl
debian/rules:17: recipe for target 'override_dh_auto_install' failed
make[1]: *** [override_dh_auto_install] Error 4

We're using gitlab runners for these builds, which haven't changed since they were previously working last month.

Has anyone seen this before and know what's causing it or what the fix is?

Thanks!
