 Hello,

 I am trying to use non-namespace DocBook to build the PostgreSQL
 documentation, but I suspect there may be a packaging bug in docbook-xsl.
 I see two ports:

 docbook-xsl @1.79.2_1 (textproc)
     The docbook xsl stylesheets

 docbook-xsl-ns @1.76.1_1 (textproc)
     DocBook XSL NS (namespaced) Stylesheets

 This appears to be like the way DocBook XSL is packaged in other
 distributions: a version without namespaces and a version with namespaces.
 For example, Debian and FreeBSD also have packages called docbook-xsl and
 docbook-xsl-ns.  However, in the MacPorts docbook-xsl port I see that
 namespaces *are* used.  For example /opt/local/share/xsl/docbook-
 xsl/common/labels.xsl I see templates with namespace-prefixed match
 attributes like these:

   <xsl:template match="d:chapter" mode="label.markup">
   <xsl:template match="d:appendix" mode="label.markup">

 On a Debian or FreeBSD system, labels.xsl has those particular lines as:

   <xsl:template match="chapter" mode="label.markup">
   <xsl:template match="appendix" mode="label.markup">

 On those other systems, the docbook-xsl-ns package installs a version with
 those d: prefixes under a separate docbook-ns directory.

 I think the MacPorts package may be accidentally installing a namespace-
 aware version in docbook-xsl.  I have no idea how to fix that or if my
 attempt at an analysis is correct, because I know next to nothing about
 DocBook or XSL.

 For what it is worth, here is the thread on the PostgreSQL documentation
 mailing list, where we've been trying to work out how to get our
 documentation to build with a MacPorts installed DocBooks installation,
 which might make matters clearer:
