[yocto] Problems building documentation for bitbake 1.17.0

I created a fresh clone of the upstream BB repository, checked out the 1.17.0 tag and cannot make the user-manual.  I don’t think the ability to make user-manual was in place at the time 1.17.0 tag happened.  I am just guessing here though.

Hello all,

I just tried

$ git clone git://git.openembedded.org/bitbake<http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake>
$ cd bitbake
$ git checkout 1.17.0
$ python setup.py install

and that failed with an infinite (well, I hit ^C before I found out for real) stream of messages of the form:

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/common/en.xml:207: parser error : Extra content at the end of the document
ĞğĠġĢģƓɠǤǥǦǧǴǵḠḡHhĤĥĦħȞȟɦḢḣḤḥḦḧḨḩḪḫ
                                                                               ^

I tried this on a Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64 bit machine.  Am I missing a particular dependency?  Is this a known problem (with an obvious solution?)  The Google doesn't tell me anything obvious about "docbook extra content at end of document"  (I didn't try searching for the string of random characters that follows that.  Perhaps I should try.)

I get the same error when executing "make DOC=user-manual" on the master branch (note that setup.py doesn't work right now on master), so I'm inclined to believe the problem is at my end.  I'm just not sure where to start looking for a solution.  So I figured I'd ask.
