This is native Unix way, it need xmllint that is part of libxml2, then 
xmlto that is a " is a bash shell script, which also uses the GNU getopt 
utility (it requires long option support). Currently the only XSL-T 
processor that is supported is xsltproc, from Daniel Veillard's libxslt 
<http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/> package. The xsltproc support requires a 
system with properly configured XML Catalogs, such as Red Hat Linux 9."
libxslt uses XXXX that is path YYYY package that requires a ZZZZ system 
with with properly configured WWWW, that uses...

fully installated and properly configured unix/linux system with  one

compiler and flex, just because  essential part of bogofilter uses flex.
