Greg,

I think this may be a bug with sgml-common.  I had errors which were
somewhat similar to this when running db2html after doing an upgrade from
RH6.1 to RH6.2.  Did you do an upgrade?  Apparantly the problem I had only
occurs if you do an upgrade, and not a fresh install. 

If you did do an upgrade from RH6.1 to RH6.2 and didn't do any other
package upgrades, then you need to do something to fix things.  The
problem is in the CATALOG file.  You can edit it by hand (I described this
in a previous email to this list a little while back - April 3).  RH also
came out with a bug-fix release of sgml-common which is supposed to fix
the problem, although I haven't tested it.
