I'm going to upload teTex-3.0 this week, therefore raising the
severity. If there isn't an upload of linuxdoc-tools that fixes this
bug until then, I'm going to NMU the package to prevent FTBFS bugs.

I'm going to use the patch given in the first mail to that bug, together
with an appropriate changelog entry. The discussions later in the bug
are in fact irrelevant for linuxdoc-tools (or rather, they are
irrelevant for the patch to fix this bug, but may still require further
consideration by the maintainer).
Regards, Frank
