How about that one?

The xmlto package checks for file
/usr/share/texmf/tex/xmltex/passivetex/fotex.xmt however this file does
not exist any more. The only occurence is.

hille@amd64-sid:~/devel/TeXLive/open_bugs/310148$ apt-file search fotex.xmt
texlive-formats-extra:
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/xmltex/passivetex/fotex.xmt

So the error message seems to be rather useless. Raising severity to normal.
