Package: texlive-context
Version: 2005.dfsg.3-1
Severity: important
This minimal test.tex ConTeXt example fails when run with
'texexec --pdf test.tex' (in Debian 'etch'):
\starttext
\input tufte
\stoptext
Here is the first error (the remainder are similar):
kpathsea: Running mktextfm ec-lmr12
mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode;
input ec-lmr12
This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.5)
kpathsea: Running mktexmf ec-lmr12
! I can't find file `ec-lmr12'.
<*> ...ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input ec-lmr12
Installing 'lmodern' fixes the errors, because it provides those
missing tfm files. So texlive-context should depend on lmodern, not
merely recommend lmodern. Without lmodern, I think the package is
totally unusable.
My only worry about this bug report -- and the reason that I did not
mark it 'severe' -- is that it is /such/ a severe bug. So I wonder
why I (or others) never noticed it before. Did something change that
made lmodern required all of a sudden? Or am I not understanding
something?
This machine runs Ubuntu feisty (i686), but I ran the above tests in a
pbuilder Debian 'etch' chroot. I did 'sudo pbuilder login' (I think
it already had the etch security updates), then 'apt-get install
texlive-context'. Then I ran that test file, found that it failed,
did 'apt-get install lmodern', and reran it with success.

Actually texlive-context is a virtual package pulling in context.
