This directory should be created by xml-core's preinst script. I tried to reproduce your issue without success. From the information you gave I can see, that xml-core is installed. So /etc/xml should exist (at least, xml-core itself needs this directory). So somebody/something seems to have removed /etc/xml on your system. Do you have any backups/logs of your system, where you can reproduce till which point /etc/xml did exist and when it was removed? > Also I notice that there's no /usr/share/doc/changelog.Debian.gz. That's right. sgml-data is a native Debian package. The changelog is /usr/share/doc/sgml-data/changelog.gz.
