Package: texlive-xetex
Version: 2012.20120611-5
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

Even with the tex-gyre package installed, running xelatex on a file with,
	\setmainfont{TeX Gyre Termes}
failed with
	kpathsea: Invalid fontname `TeX Gyre Termes', contains ' '

It didn't help, but I did experiment with including,
	\usepackage{tgtermes}

I have managed to fix the problem with a configuration adjustment,

$ cat ~/.fonts.conf 
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
<fontconfig>
    <dir>/usr/share/texmf/fonts/opentype</dir>
    <dir>/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1</dir>
</fontconfig>

but I am surprised that xelatex needed my help here to be able to use the
font. Could this be made a bit clearer in the documentation, or could the
underlying issue be fixed?

(I am not sure if this is a tex-gyre bug instead.)

Cheers,

Mark


-- Package-specific info:
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: We will only consider bug reports concerning
the packaging of TeX Live as relevant. If you have problems with
combination of packages in a LaTeX document, please consult your
local TeX User Group, the comp.text.tex user group, the author of
the original .sty file, or any other help resource. 

   *** The Debian TeX Team is *no* LaTeX Help Desk ***

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.

Please run your example with
	(pdf)latex -recorder ...
(or any other program that supports -recorder) and send us the generated
file with the extension .fls, it lists all the files loaded during
the run and can easily explain problems induced by outdated files in
your home directory.

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.minimalbeispiel.de/mini-en.html (english)

or

Well, ok, I guess I can close this bug. DOne so.

BTW, why don't you use the package in wheezy, that is practically
the same?
