Dear Maintainer,

svgtune currently FTBFS in Ubuntu [1] due to a help2man error (same thing
occurs in an amd64 Debian unstable pbuilder). This happens because help2man
tries to run svgtune --help, but svgtune requires python-lxml to run, which is
not present in the build dependencies for the package.

In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:

  * Build-depend on python-lxml to allow help2man to run svgtune.

Thanks for considering the patch.

Logan Rosen
