At present I just need to get my brain adjusted so I can read terse and 
ambiguous messages correctly. :-D

Duncan suggested that I probably did need the DocBook XML DTD 4.2, if 
you could confirm that it would help.

Strange thing is that I appear to have it installed.  So, I looked up 
the scripts in version 5.0 of Beyond Linux From Scratch and reinstalled 
it and now that error went away.

There does seem to be a new dependency, perhaps it was optional for 
KDE-4.4.  So, I installed it: LibDBusMenu-Qt version 0.3.0.  That was 
the latest version.  Can you confirm that that is the correct version?  
It did not build correctly due to a CMake problem.  Wonder if Gentoo has 
found this and if there is a patch.

And then I found that there is a Qt upgrade to 4.6.3 so it will take a 
while till I can continue on KDE-4.5 as I am now rebuilding KDE-4.4 
against the new Qt version.
