Bob,
As I know, there are no "docbook-xsl-ns" with version 1.76.1 package in stable|testing debian repository. Moreover, the 1.76 version of docbook stylesheet is only in sid (unstable) repo of debian (what ubuntu packages are often derived from): http://packages.debian.org/sid/docbook-xsl-ns
You can try (some risky and tricky, though) use unstable sid repository from debian on ubuntu just to install the package.
1. Install the xml-core and perl (you find information about it a little later) package from the stable repo.
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends xml-core perl
2. Add the following string to /etc/apt/sources.list (unstable repo)
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main
3. run to update local repo db:
sudo apt-get update
4. install the package using sid repo
sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends -t sid install docbook-xsl-ns sgml-base
Please, note, that:
- docbook-xsl-ns package depends on xml-core, so better to use xml-core from the stable repo.
- sgml-base package depends on perl (version doesn't matter), so better to use perl from the stable repo - see step 1.
5. Disable (by commenting) or just delete the string deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main
from the /etc/apt/sources.list file and run apt-get update once more.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Ubuntu package for DocBook XSL 1.76.1
I have a requirement to install the DocBook XSL ns stylesheets from a Debian package
on an Ubuntu system. However, I can only seem to find version 1.75.2 packaged that
way, and not the latest 1.76.1. Does anyone know where to find the updated package?
