Bug#418674: tex-common: tex does not look in /usr/share (only in /etc); can't find article.cls
Package: tex-common
Version: 1.4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
After upgrading to tex-common which just came in to the repository, latex cannot find article.cls. Strace shows it is looking in /etc/ but not in /usr/share.
Downgrading to the previous tex-common removes this problem. When creating this bug report, I was told that this version is ahead of the current debian version, which is puzzling.
