But in the build log we have:
Setting up texlive-base (2007.dfsg.2-1) ...
Running mktexlsr. This may take some time... done.
Building format(s) --all.
This may take some time... done.
Bummer ... Uaaaaaa ... the call to
update-fmtutil
is suddenly missing in the postinst ...
going back to tex-common fixing that ... BUMMER..
Rebuild versions will be uploaded tonight.
Thanks Hilmar for finding that
Best wishes
Norbert
