Bug#698004: bibtex2html: style file in current directory are no longer supported



Package: bibtex2html
Version: 1.97-2
Severity: normal


Hello,

I just migrated from squeeze to wheezy. I understand that wheezy is
not stable yet. I encountered a regression while using
bibtex2html. Before the migration I could specify a style in the
current directory thanks to to the -s option because "." is in my
BIBINPUTS. After migration this no longer works. I believe because
there is a change of directory to /tmp in the process.

In other words when executing:

$ export BSTINPUTS=.::
$ bibtex2html -s mylocalstyle foo.bib

returns an error message (style file not found). It was working
properly in squeeze.

Note: there is a work-around that work in my case:
$ bibtex2html -s `pwd`/mylocalstyle foo.bib

Best,

Erik
