Bug#150822: please install later version of dvipdfm

[Junichi Uekawa <dancer@netfort.gr.jp>]

retitle 150822 tetex-base: Does not depend on xlibs, or tetex-bin, but runs programs in tetex-bin depending on xlibs
thanks

I've just noticed why dpkg wants to configure tetex-base before
xlibs, after looking at it closer.
tetex-base doesn't depend on tetex-bin or xlibs.
tetex-base tries to execute code that is extracted (but not yet
configured) from tetex-bin, which in turn does not yet work
because xlibs is not yet configured.

This bug should probably be fixed (like, not calling initex
from tetex-base postinst, and calling it in tetex-bin postinst ?)
sometime, but maybe not now.


For the time being, manual installation of tetex 
will probably allow dvipdfm to build on alpha ?


Thanks, Branden, for your enlightenment.


regards,
