Bug#695451: unblock: alqalam/0.2-6
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Dear release managers,
I am asking for a freeze exception for
alqalam 0.2-6
which fixes a RC bug wrt placement of files under /usr/share/texmf/doc.
The same happened in cm-super-minimal and was fixed there with
an NMU and freeze-exempted (see bug #577635).
The only change is that it stops shipping files in
/usr/share/texmf/doc
because this is a symlink to /usr/share/doc/texmf, and thus it
depends on the order of installation of alqalam and tex-common
if it really becomes a symlink or not.
More details are discussed in the bug report #577635 of cm-super-minimal
that had the same problems.
The debdiff is minimal, here it it:
