[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-2462?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Geoffrey De Smet commented on DROOLS-2462: ------------------------------------------ [~manaRH] the maven-jdocbook-plugin switch "build offline" isn't covering all of "offline" cases... This is last decade technology that grew organically and is nowhere near the asciidoc plugin quality. That being said, the jdocbook-core (used by that plugin), does support seeing that HTTP import and replacing it by something from a jar on the classpath: https://github.com/pressgang/jdocbook-core The problem is - when that doesn't happen, even if it's offline, it just gets it online as fallback and effectively eats the bug. Combine that with the fact that the url's contain version numbers and the structure in the docbook jars (yet another artifact, jaay!) changes between versions, and you have a perfect storm. It's basically very fragile - any docbook version number upgrade probably broke it working offline too. But it did work offline in some version... This rabbit hole for this bug goes deep... Good luck if you want/need to fix it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.5.0#75005)
