Package: texlive-latex-recommended
Version: 2009-8
Severity: normal

If you have special UCS characters on the TOC, then it gets recompiled every
time. The result alternates between having the correct UCS character and having
the famous "Please insert into preamble".  If you compile the attached bad.tex
you get this: 1. The first time you get an empty summary. 2. The second time
you get the "insert into preamble" instead of the UCS char. 3. The third time
you get a perfect summary. 4. Then, if you compile again, you get the same file
as in item 2.  Programs like rubber enter an infinite loop since bad.toc keeps
changing.  It is curious that this does not happen if you have some 16-bit
UTF-8 char inside "\author", for example.  The problem happens in "latex" as
well as "pdflatex".   André Caldas.


-- 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)

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
