Package: tetex-base
Version: 3.0-6
Severity: normal
Currently, tex-common parses the configuration options from 00updmap.cfg
that it took over, and drops the rest into a file that tetex-base should
handle, but there is no code in tetex-base for that.
(Technically it may be easier to put the code into tex-common's
postinst, but it is clearly a tetex-base issue)
I tried to write a patch for this, but it isn't trivial. There are a
couple of tasks to perform. One complicating fact is that the order and
comments have changed, too, so that we cannot simply add or remove "#!"
signs, or complete entries, if we want dpkg to recognize the file as
unchanged if 00updmap.cfg was in fact unchanged.=20=20
Using ucf might make things easier in this respect, however we must
somehow make sure that the entries for removed fonts and for fonts in
tetex-extra get removed, otherwise we'll get lots of failed postinst
bugs. And if we simply present a diff to the user, this won't help him
much because of the large changes.
This is what needs to be done, AFAICS:
- cut out the entries (plus comments) that belong into 20tetex-extra.cfg
- Add the entries that are new
- Cut out (or comment) the entries that have been removed
- Transform the entries that have been transformed (e.g. antt now has
lots of Map lines instead of only one, and a changed comment; lucidabr
had two lines that were active, now there are four deactivated lines
plus comments)
And all this while retaining user changes - for example, the old
tetex-base shipped:
# symbols for ConTeXt macro package
Map context.map
the new has=20
# symbols for ConTeXt macro package
Map contnav.map
And if the user changed it to=20
# symbols for ConTeXt macro package
#! Map context.map
then the postinst should transform it to
# symbols for ConTeXt macro package
#! Map contnav.map
Of course we can just forget that and say that it is a new file, and
that not taking over old changes in a *different* file does not violate
the must clause from Policy. Together with README.Debian, NEWS.Debian
etc.pp.=20
But I'd be happier with a nice solution that at least captures most of
the changes, and maybe somebody has a good idea.

Changes:
tetex-base (3.0-12) unstable; urgency=low
.
* add magic comment to language.d/00tetex.cnf [preining]
* tetex-extra now depends on tetex-base (>= 3.0-11), in order to prevent
partial upgrades with tetex-extra's files already in TEXMFDIST without
tetex-base and tex-common being updated appropriately (closes:
#343572) [frank]
* Add two missing md5sums to the list in common.functions (closes:
#344212) [frank]
* Bump standards-version to 3.6.2 (no changes needed except the
still outstanding fixes for #139353) [frank]
* When handling obsolete conffiles, also cater for files from woody,
necessary if tetex-extra has been in state rc throughout sarge
(closes: #347355) [frank]
* Again add the watchfile which was lost in sid; update it's syntax a
little. [frank]
* Do not keep a copy of the static language.dat if it is the version
shipped with woody or sarge (closes: #321804) [frank]
* Don't claim to remove unchanged conffiles if no conffiles are on the
system at all [frank]
* Unregister obsolete debconf questions (closes: #334723) [frank]
* Document in NEWS.Debian that we cannot migrate user's changes from old
00updmap.cfg to 10tetex-base.cfg and 10tetex-extra.cfg (closes:
#321257) [frank]
* Do not let the preinst fail just because the previously installed
version is pre-sarge, as we did deliberately during experimental
development.
* Fix reportbug script handling [preining]
