Package: tex-common
Version: 2.08
Severity: important
File: /usr/sbin/update-texmf-config

This may even be a violation of a must directive in policy, but not in
the literal sense: "dpkg-reconfigure" is not mentioned in policy.

In a clean chroot, after installing texlive-base:

/# dpkg-reconfigure texlive-base
Running mktexlsr. This may take some time... done.
dpkg-trigger: dpkg-trigger must be called from a maintainer script (or with a --by-package option)

Currently this is no problem, because we have nothing to
reconfigure. But it will be needed as soon as we have the libpaper hook,
and may be needed by other packages using update-texmf-config.

The solution is probably that each maintainer script that calls
update-texmf-config must add its package name as a second argument (or
even better, as an argument to a --by-package option).  In addition,
update-texmf-config should be made fit for admin use - but I'm not sure
how to do that, since we *have*to* give dpkg-trigger a package name.

Regards, Frank

Seems we didn't, upload was done 2 days ago in 1.5.42 (debconf)

Closing this now.
