If you omit it, you should receive a warning. If you get it wrong, you'll end up getting an error when it gets to the DocBook->whatever stage.
Got it.
B) How exactly do I make it stop?
(This is a known, annoying bug in boostbook.jam): when you change user-config.jam (or whichever configuration file you're using), remove "catalog.xml" from the directory where you are generating the documentation. Otherwise, it will use the old locations.
Thanks. I downloaded copies of docbook-dtd and docbook-xsl from the listed sources, and that worked like a charm. I will let you know if I figure out how to use it with the package installation under OS X. A few other comments: Since the files in my CVS don't have write permissions until I explicitly change them, building the boostbook html fails for the files that already exist (the redirect files) in CVS. It might be worthwhile to mention in the documentation that folks building boostbook in a CVS tree might need to erase the redirecting html files before running bjam. Also, is there an archive (zip, tarfile, etc) of the generated html that could be dropped into the boost tree? These days I only use boost CVS trees, and when I'm disconnected from the internet I sometimes need to check docs for libraries. It would be great if I could just drop the documentation into the tree if it's not going to exist in human-palatable form in CVS anymore. Thanks for the help, ron
