Please unblock texlive-extra
Dear release team,
the Debian TeX Task Force would be grateful if you could
unblock texlive-extra/2005.dfsg.2-4
which I uploaded today. This upload fixes one important, two normal and
one wishlist bug - the changes are small and non-disruptive. Without
it, etch would still be a great Debian release, but with it, its texlive
part would be even better. Here's the changelog:
texlive-extra (2005.dfsg.2-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* downgrade the relation from fonts-extra to cm-super from depends to
suggests. Default would be recommends, but a suggests is enough.
(Closes: #399064)
* add the missing dstroke.map, and add the addMap action to the config
file (Closes: #400780)
* activate ugq.map (Closes: #374351)
* remap infix-RPN.tex and .sty from the doc hieracy to texmf-texlive
(Closes: #402987) (closes Ubuntu bug #69690)
Comments:
- software included in texlive upstream which exists as a separate
Debian package usually gets a Recommends or Suggests, cm-super was an
exception for "historical reasons" (iow it was forgotten).
- adding and activating font map files means that it's not only possible
to run latex on a file using those fonts, but to actually create a PS
or PDF file - so this only adds functionality without a possibility to
break anything.
- "remap" is maybe a bit too technical, here it just means means "move
the files". Where they belong.
debdiff output for the dsc file and the list of deb files are available
at
http://people.debian.org/~frank/texlive-extra_src_3-4.debdiff
and
http://people.debian.org/~frank/texlive-extra_3-4.debdiff
respectively.
Note that I am going on vacation in a couple of minutes. If you have
questions, ask them on the list (and wait patiently until Norbert
returns next year ;-)).
Regards, Frank
