[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#591674: bug to keep sablotron from testing

[Ondřej Surý]

Sorry I forgot the check the dependency only on libsablot0.

I think that xsltproc can be used to process XSLT files, but I doubt
it's drop-in replacement.

Sablotron was moved to sourceforge in February this year, but I would
recommend that we leave to die in peace.
