 Description: A Perl script that converts html files to latex
  gnuhtml2latex is a Perl script that converts html files to latex
  files. It takes list of .html files as arguments and make .tex
  ones. Can also convert html stdin to latex stdout.
 
 Now, as the author says in the header: It is VERY ALPHA. It kind of
 works, but is far from perfect. I adopted this package a long time
 ago (Jun 2003), and there is no upstream activity at all. I have no
 bug reports. Please compare html2latex to this package to see if they
 provide the same functionality or if one of them contains the other
 one.

Yes, I've checked this package. Besides being VERY ALPHA, it generates
old-style LaTeX (LaTeX2.09), and is pretty limited and monolithic.

html2latex is a much better piece of software, IMHO. It's more complete.
It's more modular: it uses an already packaged Perl HTML parser
(HTML::Tree), other already packaged Perl package Image::Magick (from
perlmagick package) as optional for converting images. It's more
extensible and I intend to colaborate with upstream.

That's why I ITP'ed it.

Good.

If you want to replace my package, please provide a replaces for it,
and I'll file a bug on ftp.debian.org to remove it.

Hi y,

please use your real name to report bugs, *especially* wnpp bugs. It
feels very strange to imagine y maintaining Debian packages...

Hi,

I've made a mistake when configuring reportbug on a new machine.
Noted this when message arrived on debian-devel, sorry.
