  Description     : a tool to build indexes in LaTeX

 LaTeX Indexbuilder is a tool for building indexes in LaTeX. It looks
 inside a LaTeX document for a given list of words and add necessary
 LaTeX stuff inside, in order to build a clean index. It does not
 handle the output made out of \index calls by LaTeX, it just takes
 care that every words in a list are correctly identified with the
 command \index without you doing the boring job by hand. 
 To do something with the .idx file created by LaTeX, you should take
 a look to mendex (for example). 

 It depends only on Perl.

 It is already packaged for Debian, but in an ugly-just-working way,
 and no documentation is cleanly provided (only the README). I would
 gladly collaborate with anybody willing to maintain the package in
 Debian.
