Bug#182236: sanity check: no dir, /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf
Package: tetex-bin
Severity: minor
Version: 2.0.1-1
I was messing with jadetex, creating a /etc/texmf/texmf.d/80JadeTeX
file but mistakenly put that in /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf/80JadeTeX .
This caused a tetex-bin error during postinst:
Running initex. This may take some time. ...
/usr/bin/texconfig: No $TEXMFMAIN in texmf.cnf file.
/usr/bin/texconfig: set TEXMFCNF variable to the directory where
teTeX's texmf.cnf file is in.
I recovered by hand with:
# rm -r /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf
# update-texmf
I would suggest that you check if /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf is a directory
and remove it in postinst. Not a big deal -- the bug was really mine
due to the jadetex brokenness.
