#5537: Winnie is attempting to use --with-xsldir which is currently not used
anymore

 Reporter:  strk       |      Owner:  robe
     Type:  defect     |     Status:  new
 Priority:  blocker    |  Milestone:  PostGIS 3.5.0
Component:  buildbots  |    Version:  master
 Keywords:  winnie     |
-----------------------+---------------------------
 In the current master branch of PostGIS we're not using the `--with-
 xsldir` configure switch anymore as we're referencing the XSL by URI
 instead of looking for a file on the system.

 The URI currently used are:

   - http://cdn.docbook.org/release/xsl/current/html/docbook.xsl
   - http://cdn.docbook.org/release/xsl/current/html/chunk.xsl

 When those URIs are used with xsltproc, the system's XML catalog is
 queried to map those URIs to files on the system.

 A commandline to query the XML catalog for those URIs is:

   - xmlcatalog '' ${URI}

 On my system that works with both URIs.
 If it doesn't work on Winnie, that means XML catalogs are not in order and
 some research is needed to find out why.

 We used to fail ./configure when not finding the required resources, now
 we're not failing anymore, I guess we could bring that back to be as nice
 as before (ref #5533 #5536 ) - if we want to do that, it's better to spin
 off another ticket
