Should python and python-xml/pyxml be listed as build time dependencies?
I couldn't find any mention of them in INSTALL, but they are required by
sheets/checktrans.py (which is used to produce the sheet translation
report).

Selected output of make:

"Merging translations into ChemEng.sheet.
(cd . && ./checktrans UML.sheet ER.sheet sybase.sheet FS.sheet
network.sheet Flowchart.sheet Circuit.sheet Contact.sheet GRAFCET.sheet
chronogram.sheet SADT.sheet Pneumatic.sheet Electric.sheet civil.sheet

Assorted.sheet ciscocomputer.sheet ciscohub.sheet ciscomisc.sheet
cisconetwork.sheet ciscorouter.sheet Cybernetics.sheet

  File "./checktrans.py", line 24, in ?

ImportError: cannot import name saxexts
*** Sheet translation report: ***
(Absence of a language code means 0% translation for that language)
(Help for translations (and/or much more) is of course welcome !)
E: checktrans failed to run. Please check that python and python-xml are
installed
E: on your system. On some systems, python-xml is called PyXML. If in
doubt,
E: have a look at http://pyxml.sourceforge.net";

This is also a problem in 0.93
