Bug#321361: tetex-base: upgrade from 3.0-4 to 3.0-6 breaks while trying to find "update-language"
Package: tetex-base
Version: 3.0-6
Severity: normal
I was running tetex 3.0-4 that I grabbed from experimental and it
worked fine.
I saw that Frank Küster had tetex 3.0-6 for sarge on his page at p.d.o
and I tried to use that to upgrade the version that I have here to
help debug the packages, but after running "apt-get dist-upgrade", the
installation of tetex-base is broken.
The problem seems to be in tetex-base.postinst, where a call to
update-language is made. Here is a small snippet of the installation
problems that I had:
