advice on bug reporting
Hi!
I think the following problem should be reported against
debiandoc-sgml, but it may be in this way for some reason.
I was trying to build svn-buildpackage, but it always failed:
test -d HOWTO.html || debiandoc2html HOWTO.sgml
# latex permanently reports minor problems so ignore errors from
# debiandoc2pdf
test -f HOWTO.pdf || debiandoc2pdf HOWTO.sgml >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
test -f HOWTO.pdf || debiandoc2pdf HOWTO.sgml >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
make[1]: *** [build] Error 1
I have noticed that doing 'debiandoc2pdf -v HOWTO.sgml' gives:
debiandoc2latexpdf: LaTeX documentation system not found
debiandoc2latexpdf: please install the package 'tetex-bin'
debiandoc2pdf: ERROR: HOWTO.pdf could not be generated properly
So so, I have installed tetex-bin by hand, and got an other error -
needed tetex-extra as well. Shouldn't debiandoc-sgml depend on tetex-bin
and tetex-extra?
Thanks for your time,
GCS
