On either Fedora or RHEL, installing the "authoring tools" package group
(not quite the right name, but it's close) has worked for me for many
years. I've not bothered to figure out what the minimum required subset
of that might be.
Not sure what the Debian equivalent is, but borka/guaibasaurus is able to
build the docs, so the packages certainly are available. Peter might have
a better idea.
