Bug#584928: tetex-bin fails to configure
Package: tetex-bin
Version: 3.0-31
Severity: important
Today I upgraded from Debian etch security repository a machine and
found this problem:
baanlnx:/baan/etc# LC_ALL=C apt-get -f install
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done

After this operation, 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Setting up tetex-bin (3.0-31) ...
No alternatives for oxdvi.bin.
dpkg: error processing tetex-bin (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of texlive-pstricks:
texlive-pstricks depends on texlive-base | tetex-bin; however:
Package texlive-base is not installed.
Package tetex-bin is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing texlive-pstricks (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
tetex-bin
texlive-pstricks
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
The failing statement is "update-alternatives --remove-all oxdvi.bin"
that fails with message "No alternatives for oxdvi.bin."
Bye,
Giuseppe
