Hi,
Yes, kernel-package did indeed add a depends relationship, since
it is required while building the documentation related packages. If
xmlto is not present, amke-kpkg ... buildpackage fails.
I think that suggests was too weak/ However, the size of the
packages you need to install just so you can build kernel documentation
does seem onerous, given that most common case for the people using
kernel-package is to build image or header packages.
Perhaps a compromise might be to move the dependency to
recommends, and make a note in the man page and coumentation about the
need for xmlto in order build all the documentation?
