There are 4 requirements you need to have a running doc system.

1) You have the DocBook DTD V4.1.2 installed on your system.
2) You have the XSL stylesheets V1.48 installed on your system.
3) You have a XML catalog.
4) You have the stylesheets and DocBook DTD registered in the XML catalog.

You should be able to check these 4 requirements through use of libxml2 and 
some simple scripts.
