Hi all!

The new packages uploaded some time ago by myself to Debian unstable have
been backported to etch are as usual available on people.debian.org.
Don't forget that you will also need lmodern and context for
texlive-full.

Binaries of texlive-bin 2007.dfsg.1-1 are currently only for i386, I
hope to get powerpc binaries soon. amd64 I will build myself rather
soon.

I am using ubuntu 7.10 (amd64) and installed context using the debian repositories without any problem. However, the directory structure of the documentation has been reorganized, and it does not work correctly.

What I usually do is

locate show-man.pdf | xargs gnome-open

which opens show-main.pdf.gz from /usr/share/doc/context-doc-nonfree/showcase/

Now suppose I wan to open the charts manual. The show-man.pdf links to general/manuals/mchart.pdf while mcharts.pdf is at /usr/share/doc/context-doc-nonfree/manuals/ and the file is named mchart.pdf.gz.

So, there are two differences here. The files are organized in a different directory structure, and have a different extension. Is there some way this can be corrected at the packaging end?

Thank you.

Aditya
