Bug#1064918: tex-common postinst script fails due to a bug in lua script /usr/bin/mtxrun.lua

Hello Giacomo,

Indeed, mtxrun.lua uses texlua, as an interpreter, and that is provided by texlive-binaries, which was also upgraded a couple of days ago. Gotcha! I downgraded texlive-binaries to the previous version, and now tex-common configures correctly. So, apparently, the upgrade of texlive-binaries from version 2023.20230311.66589-8+b1 to 2023.20230311.66589-9 broke the postinst script of tex-common, where it attempts to run mtxrun.lua.


According to the actual knowledge (#1064402) the issue is caused by the (not very helpful) luametatex upgrade, which should have been targeted to experimental, as it belongs to the upcoming TL 2024 release. Please downgrade your luametatex to the version from testing (and put it on hold), then upgrading tl-bin should not be an issue.
