[l2h] HOw to install l2h on debian?

[Nasser M. Abbasi]

Just wanted to add that I now tried

apt-get install latex2html

but get a message saying that latex2html is not available, but it is 
refereed to by another pakcage. This may mean the package is missing, has 
been obsoleted or is only available from another source

thanks
