You don't need sgml-tools nor sgml-data AFAIK. sp is depended on by
debiandoc-sgml. Please send me the output of your 'make docs' run
and I'll take a look. Or someone, please give me an account on the
box and I'll work it out personally for you guys.

Well, as I mentioned before, the actual package dependancies are the
'source dependancies'. You should use the boot-floppies control file
for your dependancy usage, not your internal wanna-build stuff (or
wanna build could be taught that boot-floppies really is a source
package, and use the package dependancies).
