You need a catalog file for --nonet to work. This script is not self-contained, because it assumes that the catalogs for boostbook and docbook are present in the environment.
Right - I added these when I discovered that the damn thing was going out on the net every time I built something.
And that's the real issue. Scripts like this are work great as long as you're only running them in a specific environment. If you try to make them portable, they'll quickly become at least as complex as the b2 implementation.
Right - that's why I didn't try to make it really portable. I made it simple enough to work and simple enough to adjust to taste. B2 places a impenetrable layer between me building the documentation. My script is 100 times easier to work with than the b2 implementation.
Note that it's actual function is to cut B2 out of the mix. This makes things much, much simpler.
BTW there are other versions to produce pdf and ebook from the boostbook files.
