Bug#772167: Interrupted upgrade breaks system

[Juliusz Chroboczek <jch@pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr>]

Package: texlive-base
Version: 2014.20141024-1
Severity: minor

Hi Norbert,

I just did a dist-upgrade on a laptop I hadn't used for a few weeks.
I didn't check that the power cord was plugged in, and the laptop crashed
during the upgrade.

After rebooting, I couldn't get APT to recover because the file
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/ls-R was empty.  I needed to manually
reinstall textlive-base to get it fixed.

I don't know if you consider this a bug -- if you don't, please close this
bug report.  (And I'll troll the Debian mailing lists complaining about how
DDs routinely close perfectly valid bug reports.)

(Just kidding.)
