Yes, that works. >>Workaround: After installing "docbook" it works. > >newt build depends on docbook-utils that depends on docbook-dsssl that >depends on docbook so your minimal system should have installed that >already. Can you please verify? docbook-dsssl depends on docbook *or* docbook-xml. docbook-xml has only a suggestion to docbook. It fails, if docbook-xml is installed and docbook is not installed. Reproducable way in typically installation of Debian bookworm: # apt remove docbook # apt install docbook-xml # apt source newt # cd newt-0.52.23 # apt build-dep newt # dpkg-buildpackage -B --build-profiles=nocheck,noinsttest,noudeb -uc -us Henry
