Bug#138161: tetex-bin: xdvi dies when it receives SIGUSR1
Package: tetex-bin
Version: 1.0.7+20011202-5
Severity: normal
Quoting from the man page: "When xdvi receives a SIGUSR1 signal, it
rereads the dvi file."
However, `xdvi' is a shell script, which dies when it receives
SIGUSR1. One has to kill the child process corresponding to
`xdvi.bin' with SIGUSR1 to have xdvi reread the dvi file.
