Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.8
This isn't my bug, but is from someone that is trying to see if using
dpkg would be a useful thing on a redhat system. He picked up the dpkg
tarball on ftp.debian.org and it requires debiandoc2html to complete
the compile. This (I'd guess) should probably fail, but fail gracefully
rather than stopping the make.

Message #12 received at 7732-done@bugs.debian.org (full text, mbox, reply):
This has been fixed by adding a --without-sgml-docs option to configure
so dpkg should build cleanly on redhat systems as well.
Wichert.
