Subject: jadetex: doesn't update when language.dat is changed
Message-ID: <20000530012712.A20426@polya>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
User-Agent: Mutt/1.0.1i
Delivered-To: submit@bugs.debian.org
Package: jadetex,tetex-bin
Version: 2.7-2, 1.0.6-6
I've just noticed a problem. When language.dat is changed through
texconfig, fmtutil --all is run. But as jadetex has its own
fmtutil.cnf, texconfig doesn't notice.
The only obvious solution to this, which will be very useful if the
tetex-bin package is split, is to have an /etc/texmf/fmtutil/
directory with multiple .cnf files in, say base.cnf, pdf.cnf, jade.cnf
and so on. Then fmtutil --all reads all of the files in the
directory. I do not imagine that it will be that difficult to make
the necessary modifications, although the search for the directory is
not going to be trivial, it seems.
The other way to do it is to modify fmtutil to start the run_initex
function with:
command -v "$engine" || return
Then if a particular engine (such as jadetex) is not present, we just
skip that format. And if we go for this option, then *all* formats
get put in one master fmtutil.cnf (including jadetex). I don't know
whether there are other tex format packages which call fmtutil in this
way, but if not, this may be a good way forward.
[tetex maintainers: haven't had a chance to check, but the bug report
about pdftex.ini being in tetex-extra: does this prevent tetex-bin
from being able to install? It wouldn't surprise me if this is the
case, as fmtutil would normally abort if it can't build a format.
Maybe this is a partial solution to this aspect of that problem as
well.]
I'm happy to work on a patch for this, if necessary.
Julian

Changes:
tetex-bin (1.0.7+20011202-5.1) unstable; urgency=high
.
* stop to install texmf.cnf as a real file but, instead, install separated
files in texmf.d/* and run update-texmf to generate texmf.cnf
Accordingly we modified texconfig so that it will modify 05TeXMF instead
of texmf.cnf directly. So remove texmf.cnf from conffiles and add
separated counterparts. (closes: #69600, #133200) [kohda@debian.org]
* stop to install fmtutil.cnf as a real file but, instead, install it in
fmt.d/00tetex.cnf and run update-fmtutil to generate fmtutil.cnf
So remove fmtutil.cnf from conffiles. (closes: #64914) [kohda@debian.org]
* change TEXMFLOCAL to /usr/local/share/texmf and also add TEXMFOLDLOCAL
for consistency. (closes: #75265) [kohda@debian.org]
* modify rules so that it removes texk/web2c/pdftexdir/Makefile
(closes: #133128) [kohda@debian.org]
* fix xdvi wrapper (xdvi-sh) so it can decompress *.Z files now.
(closes: #138791) [kohda@debian.org]
* fix cron.daily so that it will update all necessary directories.
