Broken tetex-base?
I've just tried to install the cygnus-stylesheets package, which
supplies db2pdf, which the wine documentation requires to build
fully.
Having downloaded the dependencies to this package, then the modem
crapping out, I restarted the install with:
apt-get install cygnus-stylesheets
It downloaded the remaining packages, then started configuring, which
brought up a "dialog" box saying:
"Could not find default config file for pdftex (pdftex.cfg).
The programm will exit now."
and an OK button, which on clicking gives a load of dependency errors
starting with:
"dpkg: error processing tetex-base (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1"
It seems that this is a bug, but has anyone got a workaround that
doesn't incur me downloading another 20-odd Megabytes over a 56K
modem? And should I report it as a bug, there seems to be nothing
outstanding on bugs.debian.org?
Cheers,
Dave Jolley.
