Package: tetex-extra
Version: 2.0.2c-8
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Latex produces a mysterious "Missing }" error on the input file 
below. See the attached log file.

Simply replacing "amsart" with "article" in the input file works 
fine.

The following patch seems to work but is not perfect, because in the
list of floats one has dots between the name and page number, while
for table of contents, list of figures and tables amsart does not
put dots.

The idea behind the patch is:
1) I guess that the major problem is that amsart.cls redefines
   \@starttoc to have 2 mandatory arguments instead of 1.
   Fix: use a new macro instead of \@starttoc.
   (I used \ams@starttoc.)
2) float.sty and amsart.cls formats list of floats differently.
   In particular float.sty seems to depend on \@dotsep being 
   defined.  This is why I define \@dotsep.

Best wishes,

Dear bug submitter,

the bug you have submitted against one of the TeX packages concerns
not the Debian packaging of TeX Live, nor the upstream TeX Live 
distribution itself, but Up-upstream, the original author of
the respective package.

TeX Live only collects what authors provide.

Thus, neither we, the Debian TeX Team, nor the Upstream TeX Live team
can fix anything regarding this bug.

Furthermore, the bug you have reported is rather old.

We suggest you to do the following:
* verify that the bug is still present with current TeX Live (2013)
  installation on Debian
* if yes, please report the bug to the *original* author of the TeX
  package, and *not* to upstream TeX Live nor Debian

Other ways to deal with these bugs are requesting help from TeX experts,
your local TeX consultant, or local TeX User Groups. One good place to
ask questions is the newsgroup comp.text.tex, or the StackExchange
website http://tex.stackexchange.com


Thanks a lot for your understanding

Norbert
