Failure when upgrading policy kit

[Frédéric Perrin]

Hello,

For some time now, policykit does not upgrade properly. This has already
been reported a couple of times --see [1], [2]. It fails at the same
time as the other reports, when running xsltproc. Removing the -nonet
option from the xsltproc invokation allows the build to proceed.

The (I think) relevant package versions that I have are the following :

docbook-4.1_3                       =   up-to-date with port
libxml2-2.7.3                       =   up-to-date with port
libxslt-1.1.24_2                    =   up-to-date with port
sdocbook-xml-1.1,1                  =   up-to-date with port
policykit-0.9_2                     <   needs updating (port has 0.9_4)

Also :
% ls -l /usr/local/share/xsl/docbook/manpages/docbook.xsl
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  14763 24 fév 12:51 /usr/local/share/xsl/docbook/manpages/docbook.xsl

The version that fails to rebuild correctly is :
# $FreeBSD: ports/sysutils/policykit/Makefile,v 1.18 2009/03/30 00:17:16 marcus Exp $
#   $MCom: ports/sysutils/policykit/Makefile,v 1.22 2008/08/21 21:53:00 mezz Exp $

(By the way, is that the right place to send a problem with ports, or
should I try send-pr ? The handbook says to try contacting the
maintainer.)

The trace that I get is the following :
