Description Pierre Wieser 2011-11-25 08:02:32 UTC 
When gnome-doc-tool has to include an extern entity, it searches it in the current working directory instead of in the directory of the source document.

E.g. have a source tree with
   HOME/
   +- C/
      +- doc.xml
      +- entity.xml

Say doc.xml has:
  <!ENTITY entity "entity.xml">
  &entity;

Then:
  cd HOME
  gnome-doc-tool html -o C/ -d0 C/doc.xml

You will get following error:
  -:143: parser error : Entity 'entity' not defined
      &entity;
              ^
Comment 1 André Klapper 2020-03-03 18:36:56 UTC 
gnome-doc-utils has been superseded by yelp-xsl, yelp-tools, and itstool.

gnome-doc-utils will not see any further development, hence closing as WONTFIX.
