Bug#613013: luatex: fails to upgrade in absence of fmtutil.cnf
Package: luatex
Version: 0.60.2-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 7.2
Setting up luatex (0.60.2-1) ...
Building format(s) --byengine luatex.
This may take some time...
fmtutil-sys failed. Output has been stored in
/tmp/fmtutil.GqN8HXC0
Please include this file if you report a bug.
That file contains:
/usr/bin/fmtutil: line 362: /usr/share/texmf/texconfig/tcfmgr: No such file or directory
fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found.
So it seems that luatex fails to configure in absence of that config
file. I *guess* that this config file is put in place by the postinst
/ configure step of some other texlive package, maybe
texlive-base. Then luatex should (directly or indirectly) depend on
texlive-base. Possibly the bug is in a package that luatex depends on,
or recommends, rather than in luatex itself.
The information hereunder is for the state _after_ I fixed the issue
manually, by first having all texlive-related packages installed and
configured correctly.
