building pdf documentation of glibc-doc-reference
Can someone help me in building the pdf documentation of glibc-doc-reference
on a Debian Sid machine? This is what I did
$apt-get source --download-only glibc-doc-reference
$dpkg-source -x glibc-doc-reference_2.6.1-1.dsc
$cd glibc-doc-reference-2.6.1/; vim debian/rules
change line 14 from
$(MAKE) -C manual info html
to
$(MAKE) -C manual info html pdf
$fakeroot debian/rules build
The compilations stops at

If I keep pressing carriage returns whenever it stops (total 3 times), in
the end I get the following error.
Output written on libc.pdf (1028 pages, 4392548 bytes).
Transcript written on libc.log.
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: pdfetex exited with bad status, quitting.
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: see libc.log for errors.

make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/raju/practice/glibc-doc-reference/glibc-doc-reference-2.6.1/manual'
make: *** [build-stamp] Error 2
Is this a bug in glibc-doc-reference or texi2dvi or some other package? I
can file the bug but don't know against which package I should report it.
to?
thanks
