Hi Mathieu --
Publican is failing on your machine because of a dependency issue.
You've got libfile-copy-recursive-perl 0.36, but Publican requires >=0.38
I just verified the installation instructions for Publican on Debian[1]
using a fresh installation of Debian 5.0.3 and confirm that the correct
version of libfile-copy-recursive-perl gets pulled in (0.38-1). I was
then able to build html and PDF documents, although FOP threw up errors
during PDF generation and I suspect some further tweaking is needed.
That said, we haven't tested Publican with mml yet, and preliminary,
informal tests based on your test case have not been encouraging :(
Please feel free to drop by the Publican mailing list[2] and let us know
what we can do to help you further.
Cheers
Ruediger
