Wow, someone's still running MCC? that was a nice compact distribution, from the days before the concept of "packaging" or "clean upgrade" :-) The machine I'm sending this from runs debian/stable 2.1, but it started as a "side-grade" from MCC -> Debian 0.96 (which was old at the time, but still a.out) and then an immediate clean-upgrade to debian 1.x (1.2 maybe?) ELF...
The debian "task-sgml" metapackage has Depends: docbook, docbook-doc, sp, jade, docbook-stylesheets, docbook-stylesheets-doc, jadetex, sgml-data, debiandoc-sgml, sgmltools-2, psgml | xemacs20 | xemacs21, docbook-xml, cygnus-stylesheets, docbook2man, docbook2texi, docbook-to-man-ans so getting the sources to most of those (from ftp.debian.org) and just building them will probably do ok. You also need to grab sgml-base because it has install-sgmlcatalog, which makes it *easy* to pop in new DTD's... which is all that *really* matters; while DocBook is definitely the cadillac of Software Documentation DTD's, if you want to keep using LinuxDoc that's fine with us :-)
