this is how I made the meson build work in an offline environment:

  xfce4-terminal.spec:
    BuildRequires:  docbook-xsl-stylesheets
    BuildRequires:  xsltproc
    ...
    %build
    # Make the docs buildable without access to the internet:
    local_stylesheet=$(rpm -ql docbook-xsl-stylesheets | fgrep manpages/docbook.xsl)
    sed -i -e       \
      "s,http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl,$local_stylesheet," \
      doc/meson.build

Cheers.
