• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

In the install phase of kdelibs-3.4.2, I happened to see this scroll past: 
===================

=================== 
I.e. apparently fr.xml and iso-lat1.xml were downloaded in the process of 
validating some XML file or other that referenced them (I'm weak on DTDs, but 
kdoctools/docbook/xsl/common/l10n.xml references fr.xml etc).  
 
Ebuilds shouldn't download stuff in the install phase, so would be nice to fix 
this (presumably by disabling said xml validation). But I don't want to stop 
for this now, I need to get 3.4.2 out the door :-)

Weird, it doesn't happen here and I cannot find anything in the Makefiles that 
could explain it... 

[Comment 2 Dan Armak (RETIRED) 2005-07-28 07:10:36 UTC]

This is wild guessing, but maybe it's a validation mechanism that caches these 
files and you already had them downloaded? Anyway, I'll try to find out later 
what validation may be happening there. 

[Comment 3 Gregorio Guidi (RETIRED) 2005-07-28 07:20:20 UTC]

Well, all the needed files seems to be already there in 
kdelibs/kdoctools/docbook/, including fr.xml and iso-lat1.ent...

I can't reproduce this, so if it's still active in today's latest KDE versions please reopen.
