Package: latex2html
Version: 2002-2-1-20050114-4
Severity: normal

The latex2html package has the perl-doc package as a "Suggests", though
does actually seem to require perl-doc to run. I guess this means the packaging 
will have to change to change so it is a "Depends".

Output from a test run of latex2html:
> latex2html -dir /var/www/games/mageworld/html/ -split=3 -toc_depth=3 
> -html_version=4.0,math,i18n,table -no_footnode mageworld.tex
> You need to install the perl-doc package to use this program.

Relevant packaging lines:
> Depends: perl, netpbm (>= 2:9.20), gs, tetex-bin (>= 1.0.7+20001218), 
> tetex-extra
> Suggests: perl-doc

Of course, a siple temporary work-around is to manually install perl-doc
and I shall do that now.
