>Organization:

>Environment:

A system with LOCALBASE set to somewhere other than /usr/local so
that all ports install in that other somewhere.

>Description:

On a system as described above, the doc project makefiles fail to pick
up that the default for PREFIX is actually LOCALBASE, not /usr/local
The default for LOCALBASE being /usr/local hides this problem unless
LOCALBASE is changed.

>How-To-Repeat:

Try doing "make lint" in any do project source directory on such a
system. It tries to execute the command:

/usr/local/bin/nsgmls -s -c /usr/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/faq/../../../share/sgml/catalog -c /usr/local/share/sgml/docbook/dsssl/modular/catalog -c /usr/local/share/sgml/docbook/catalog -c /usr/local/share/sgml/jade/catalog  /usr/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/faq/book.sgml

even though none of the files it needs - from the command on down -
are in /usr/local.

>Fix:

Apply the following patch to doc/share/mk/doc.project.mk
