Subject: dict-jargon: FTBFS: Error on w3m and lynx calls

Package: dict-jargon
Version: 4.4.4-5
Severity: serious

When building 'dict-jargon' on i386/unstable,
I get the following error:

xmlto -p "-width=79" -m jargon-text.xsl txt jargon-web.xml
w3m version w3m/0.5.1, options lang=en,m17n,image,color,ansi-color,mouse,gpm,menu,cookie,ssl,ssl-verify,external-uri-loader,w3mmailer,nntp,gopher,ipv6,alarm,mark,migemo
usage: w3m [options] [URL or filename]

When trying to build in a clean unstable chroot (without w3m installed),
I get the following error instead:

xmlto -p "-width=79" -m jargon-text.xsl txt jargon-web.xml
This stylesheet requires version 1.61 or higher of the base

How absolutely bizarre. On further investigation, it builds just fine on
current hoary in the data center, and on my hoary chroot. pilot error on the
previous try.

Description:
 dict-jargon - Jargon File 4.4.4
Closes: 274689 296957 302578
Changes:
 dict-jargon (4.4.4-6) unstable; urgency=high
 .
   * Release Team - This upload fixes three FTBFS bugs, although only one was
     given an RC severity by the submitter, and makes no other changes.
 .
   * Apparently xmlto calls w3m or lynx to convert html to text, but I can't
     find the call. (I don't know why neither one is a Build-Depend.) If w3m
     is installed, it is called, but creates an error. Since I can't locate
     the error, I have listed w3m as Build-Conflicts-Indep. This solves part
     of Bug #302578, the rest of this bug is fixed by the followng paragraph.
 .
   * Place single quotes around the version number in a test in jargon.xsl, as
     suggested by Mike Hommey <email address hidden>. Closes: #296957, 302578
 .
   * Although it isn't well documented, the output of
     "/usr/share/konwert/filters/iso1-ascii" varies depending on the locale of
     the system. In some cases this output may contain 8-bit characters, which
     makes the patches in the rules file fail. To overcome this I have
     inserted "LC_ALL=C" before the konwert calls, so the output should be the
     same on any build machine. Closes: #274689
 .
   * For reasons that aren't clear to me, html2text in sid procuces an
     "apologia" that is radically different and formatted much uglier than the
     same version in sarge. I have included the formatted version of this file
     from previous releases, and commented out the rules line that produces
     this file.
