 When attempting to install ccache-devel everything installs fine until
 this line in the main.log:

 {{{
 :info:build I/O error : Attempt to load network entity
 http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl
 }}}

 After poking around I found that the problem linked to this file:

 /opt/local/etc/asciidoc/docbook-xsl/manpage.xsl

 at this line:

 {{{
 <xsl:import
 href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl"/>
 }}}

 Eventually what I did was download docbook manually and change that line
 to point to the local folder where I downloaded the folder containing
 docbook.xsl and everything worked fine then. I'm not sure why it was
 failing to go to the internet for those files but this comment in that
 same file as above makes it sound like it shouldn't have even been trying
 to go to the internet:

   NOTE: The URL reference to the current DocBook XSL stylesheets is
   rewritten to point to the copy on the local disk drive by the XML
 catalog
   rewrite directives so it doesn't need to go out to the Internet for the
   stylesheets. This means you don't need to edit the <xsl:import> elements
 on
   a machine by machine basis.

 So I'm not sure what the issue is, but I hope you can fix it. Until then
 I'm leaving that file the way I changed it so it points to a local copy of
 docbook.xsl.
