Bug#523756: texlive-latex-extra: essential .cfg files missing from latex nag package
Package: texlive-latex-extra
Version: 2007.dfsg.16-1
Severity: normal
The latex package "nag", used for detecting and warning about
obsolete LaTeX commands, misses the necessary configuration files.
The Debian installation just contains:
/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/nag/nag.sty
whereas installing the package by hand yields the additional files:
nag-abort.cfg nag-experimental.cfg nag-l2tabu.cfg nag-orthodox.cfg
a minimal latex file to reproduce the problem:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage[l2tabu]{nag}
\begin{document}
\end{document}
compiling it produces the warning:
Package nag Warning: Required ruleset l2tabu, and it wasn't there.
As no ruleset are installed by default in Debian, the nag package is
not usable.
A similar bug as been reported for the ubuntu package:

thank you!

-- Package-specific info:
If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries
(latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong
output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the
error in your report. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of
other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps
to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures!
If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of
output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem),
you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that
can be found at
http://www.latex-einfuehrung.de/mini-en.html (english)
or
