On my machine, the japanese version failed to build. You may want to try
to build the package in pbuilder first and look for missing build
dependencies.

Hum w3m is also missing in the Build-Depends then... :)

Well, you loose the history of the VCS (and we just lost it
for developers-reference since you didn't start your work on a
conversion from the CVS repository but from a fresh directory, it's not a
big deal though as the docbook conversion would have
rendered "svn annotate" useless anyway).
