Bug#898560: refcard: doesn't use dblatex anymore to build pdf

[Holger Wansing]

Package: refcard
Version: 10.0

Today I played around with refcard in a sid chroot, and I found,
that the build chain does no longer use dblatex, but apparently
xmlroff.
This seems to be caused by the switch to debhelper mechanism in
debian/rules file
in version 10.0.
(9.0.4 pdfs look fine, while starting with 10.0 the pdfs have no coloured
URLs for example.)

When I build a pdf separately with
"make USE_DBLATEX=1 refcard-a4.de.pdf" it builds fine as
known with dblatex.

It seems, that the parameter "USE_DBLATEX=1" is not used during
build, despite given in the rules fle.
I'm a bit helpless here ....

I'll check this later.
Btw. can we disable xmlroff altogether?
Is dblatex good enough for all languages now?

There are two or three languages left, which are not confirmed to work
correctly with dblatex.
If I remember correctly, this because there are no active translators
for those languages, and therefore no proofreaders.

I will try to push this forward once more ...

It was a missing export in debian/rules.
