Excerpt from the build log:
Well, my first reaction is to wonder whether shadow should really take care to get around a bug that: -is first a bug in xml2po -is fixed in testing and unstable Indeed, should we support building the version of shadow in etch with the buildsystem of sarge? This bug report indeed suggest that we add a versioned build dependency on gnome-doc-utils. However, the bug is indeed NOT one that we will fix for etch (shadow is frozen now) and....it is irrelevant for etch+1 unless one wants to support building etch+1 packahes on sarge.
