Bug#111366: TeX source too old
Package: tetex-extra
Version: 1.0.2+20000804-9
Architecture: binary-mipsel
After running fmtutil --missing a couple of times it started working,
however it generated this warning:
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
! You are attempting to make a LaTeX format from a source file
! That is more than one year old.
!
! If you enter <return> to scroll past this message then the format
! will be built, but please consider obtaining newer source files
! before continuing to build LaTeX.

! LaTeX is re-issued every 6 months, in June and December.

Local config file fonttext.cfg used
Please ensure that the file(s) are not too old when woody will be
released.
Given that the time between two Debian releases could be one or two
years, it may be wise to remove such a check from our tetex source
or ignore it. Maybe it is ignored already, in which case please
close this bug report.

Joey
