Since log is available, I am experimenting to build PDF and TXT file
with robust recursive script.  It seems to work fine on Debian machine.

It should be building them for
 "Debian reference"
  w.d.o/doc/manuals/reference/reference.{en|fr|it}.{txt|pdf}
 
 "User's Guide" 
  w.d.o./doc/manuals/users-guide/users-guide.en.{txt|pdf}

See what happens :)
