Granted I don't know anything about this and might just be misreading 
something, but from the minute I spent reading that page it does look 
like only three tools are required if you only want HTML output:

   * doxygen
   * xsltproc
   * quickbook

(And the latter is included in Boost sources, so really that's only two. 
  The third install is if you want PDF output for anything other than 
Accumulators.)

Though it also appears there are a couple of extra downloads required 
for stylesheets, which count as extra dependencies, so we might be up to 
five by now.)

In that graph, the boxes appear to be file formats and the arrows are 
the tools, and most of the arrows are xsltproc.
