A typical header looks like this: I can no longer process the documents with docbook-tools. I believe the element that has changed is the dtd located at oasis-open.org. Since I have no power to correct what is installed at oasis-open.org, I would like to use local files, but with indirection, so that I do not have to change all the documents each time I upgrade my system. I tried to use a symbolic link as the system identifier. Emacs was happy with that, but docbook-tools broke. I tried putting OVERRIDE YES in the catalog file, but the tools still insist on being able to open the file referenced by the system identifier. Does anyone have a simple way of setting up indirection, catalog based or otherwise, for docbook tools? My setup is standard RedHat Enterprise Linux. Best regards, Alan
