To make HTML and FO, xsltproc should do it. I don't have debian packages,
you may find libxml2/libxslt from Debian but I can't garantee they are up to
date otherwise compile from the sources of 2.4.2 and 1.0.2:

I'm afraid I don't provide a full solution, PDF can probably be generated
from the resulting FO using FOP, RTF I have no idea.

KDE uses it to generate it HTML from DocBook, Gnome is switching to it
to and I think Norm uses it too to some extent,
