Hmmm, it seems that somehow LaTeX code is used in your texi2dvi,
but plain tex or etex is used ...

No relation. That is ok to have nothing in /etc/texmf/texmf.d/ ... it
is not needed anymore.

For those who don't want to look up the full build log, the
error is:

kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 1+0/600 --dpi 600 ecss1440

... but the *REAL* error comes at the end:

Looking into it.

Very very strange.... no comment, no remark, no error,
everything ok, but dpkg believes it is broken ... ????

Anyone here on debian-tex-maint having an idea?

I believe it has something to do with the
	ucf 
calls to files that might not exist any more ... pleae see
	/var/lib/dpkg/info/texlive-base.postinst
... that is my only guess for now ..

Re: bibtex regression: does not write files outside of $CWD

Feature. Bibtex now behaves like tex and other programs honoring the openout setting, as mentioned.

That is security related and will not be changed by default.

Bug#666195: Processed: severity of 666195 is serious

A severity change is not an offense... making the bug serious ensures
that the buggy package won't reach testing.

And a missing dependency is a serious problem even if it's easy to fix.
It's the kind of thing that we try to avoid to inflict to testing users.

Please stop attacking everybody. Adam is only ensuring that testing is
kept safe, it's part of his responsibilities as release manager. You
should not blame him. I'm grateful of the work he does.

Cheers,

Yeah, that makes sense. I can easily work around this. Thanks -Ralf.
