How about keeping the build: target as is, complete with full
dependencies, but conditionalizing documentation building on the
presence of what it needs?:
[ ! -x /usr/bin/dvipng ] || [ ! -x /usr/bin/tex4ht ] || \
[ ! -f /usr/share/texmf-texlive/... ] || \
$(MAKE) -C DOC html
(I'm not sure what specifically you need from texlive-latex-extra.)
BTW, I'd also suggest cleaning up your build dependencies:
texlive-latex-extra already depends on -base for you, and sed, mawk,
and gawk have all been at the requisite versions since at least
oldstable, with both sed and mawk setting Priority: required.
(Moreover, allowing the virtual awk package undermines the relevant
version requirements anyway.)
