[xml/sgml-pkgs] Bug#678902: catalog registration disappeared during upgrade

[Peter Eisentraut]

Package: docbook
Version: 4.5-5.1
Severity: important

I know there were some changes made lately about how SGML catalog
registration works, but the result for me is that the catalog
registration for /etc/sgml/docbook.cat has disappeared from
/etc/sgml/catalog, and all my stuff relying on that is now failing to
build.  I added back

CATALOG /etc/sgml/docbook.cat

and now it works again.

For reference, here is the rest of /etc/sgml/catalog:

--
## This file is created by update-catalog with update-super.
## Please see update-catalog(8) for how to modify this file.

CATALOG /etc/sgml/docutils-common.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/xml-core.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/debiandoc-sgml.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/docbook-dsssl.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/openjade1.3.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/jade.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/openjade.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/metacity-common.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/docbook-xml.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/sgml-data.cat
CATALOG /etc/sgml/docbook.cat  -- added by me --

I also tried purging and reinstalling the docbook package, but that
didn't help.
