Bug#790008: texlive-bin: texlive-binaries uninstallable on several architectures
Source: texlive-bin
Version: 2015.20150524.37493-2
Severity: serious
texlive-binaries depends unconditionally on libtexluajit2, which is
only built for
Architecture: amd64 armel armhf hurd-i386 i386 kfreebsd-amd64
kfreebsd-i386 mips mipsel powerpc
according to debian/control, but that list may be too long as
libtexluajit2 does not really get build for hurd-i386 and mips,
according to https://packages.debian.org/sid/libtexluajit2
A lot of packages have texlive-binaries as a Build-Depends, so this
seems quite "serious" to me. Those packages could specify their
Build-Depends more precisely but presumably this should be fixed in
texlive-bin as there is no point in having texlive-binaries if it is
uninstallable.
