Well, you could try out hevea, it is in main (at least in unstable) and should
do what you like :
Package: hevea
Version: 1.05-4+png
Section: tex
Priority: optional
Architecture: i386
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.1-2), libncurses5, gs, netpbm, tetex-bin, dvips
Suggests: netpbm-nonfree
Installed-Size: 1268
Maintainer: Ralf Treinen <treinen@debian.org>
Description: A fast and powerful LaTeX to HTML translator
HeVeA is a LaTeX to HTML translator. Its remarkable features are
- It produces good output. By default (can be turned off) it uses the
symbol face for math symbols. Either way it usually avoids generating
zillions of picture files.
- It is highly configurable through (La)TeX macros. Though aimed at
LaTeX input it understands a fair subset of TeX' macro language.
- It runs fast.
This version of HeVeA is patched to generate by default PNG picture
files instead of GIF.
