Bug#611411: glibc-doc-reference: FTBFS: texi2dvi fails
Source: glibc-doc-reference
Version: 2.11.1-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source
glibc-doc-reference FTBFS in a clean squeeze chroot. Tail of the build
log:
| texi2dvi --pdf libc.texinfo
| make[1]: *** [libc.pdf] Error 1
| make[1]: Leaving directory `/build/sbuild-glibc-doc-reference_2.11.1-1-i386-6OZu9C/glibc-doc-reference-2.11.1/manual'
| make: *** [build-stamp] Error 2
If texi2dvi weren't buggy (#611408), the error message would be:
| This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (TeX Live 2009/Debian)
| restricted \write18 enabled.
| I can't find the format file `etex.fmt'!

| kpathsea: Running mktexfmt etex.fmt
| /usr/bin/mktexfmt: 974: /usr/share/texmf/texconfig/tcfmgr: not found
| fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found.
| texi2dvi: texinfo.tex appears to be broken, quitting.
