This is likely to gain no success, because xmlroff has been orphaned.
So no maintainer :-(
Since the problem is with pdf variants for Squeeze (!), disabling the
pdf variants for those release-notes would be a way to work around this
problem? Squeeze is old for ages, so missing pdfs should be no problem there.
(PS: Is this really correct, that release-notes are still build for those old
releases on-the-fly? I would have thought that those documents are extracted
from the relevant existing packages, here: release-notes in squeeze.
Maybe I am missing something ... )
