Package: tex-common
Version: 0.33
Severity: wishlist

The current list of RC bugs includes two "postrm fails: mktexlsr is not
available at purge time" bugs.  It would be nice if we could recommend
maintainers to just use dh_installtex even if all they need to do is
call mktexlsr.  

The script would then detect in which TEXMF trees files are installed in
the temporary directory and call mktexlsr only for these.  It should
also accept an argument specifying  additional TEXMF trees, for example
if files in TEXMFSYSVAR are generated manually.  And of course, it
wouldn't need to include the complete post{rm,inst}-tex, only
dhit_libkpathsea_configured and dhit_update_lsr_files.

By the way, currently postinst and postrm are inconsistent:  The first
uses its own function for each step (mktexlsr, updmap, etc.), the latter
one common function dhit_check_run_without_errors.  It might make sense
to separate this into a function declaration part which is common to
both (and need only be changed once, just in case) and the actual script
part for each of them.

Architecture: source all

Maintainer: Debian TeX maintainers <debian-tex-maint@lists.debian.org>

Description: 
 tex-common - Common infrastructure for using and building TeX in Debian
Closes: 392359 395032
Changes: 
 tex-common (0.36) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Depend on debconf (>= 1.4.69), which introduced the error template
     type (closes: #395032).  This broke upgrades, hence the urgency
     [frank]
   * Fix format extraction regexp in dh_installtex, the format name must
     now be at the beginning of the line, without any leading whitespace,
     but hyphens are allowed in the name.  Thanks Ralf. [preining]
   * dh_installtex: Include only the minimal mktexlsr code in case no other
     installation is done (ie no maps, formats, languages).  Also add the
     ability to specify texmf trees on the command line, and only recreate
     the ls-R DB for /usr/share/texmf and /var/lib/texmf [preining]
     (Closes: #392359)
   * Add engine-specific paths to the TEXFORMATS and TEXFONTMAPS variables,
     and avoid triple slashes.  This is completely backwards-compatible (it
     only adds path components), and is needed for the planned separate
     context package.  Thanks to Ralf Stubner for the details!
