--- Begin Message ---Package: kernel-package Version: 13.014+nmu1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainers, kernel-package suggests docbook-utils that depends on jadetex that depends on texlive-latex-base in order to build some (actually the only one) .tex file included in the kernel documentation, but the current texlive cannot build the .tex file. $ cd linux/Documentation/cdrom $ ls 00-INDEX Makefile cdrom-standard.tex ide-cd packet-writing.txt $ make ... ... [15] ! Undefined control sequence. l.1012 ...nel~2.0. Further thanks to Heiko Ei{\sz }feldt, ? The use of {\sz} in cdrom-standard.tex has existed since 2007, thus the current texlive cannot build the documentation of any recent kernel versions since then. https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?id=96de0e252cedffad61b3cb5e05662c591898e69a -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.7 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.4 (SMP w/18 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages kernel-package depends on: ii bc 1.06.95-9 ii binutils 2.25-5 ii build-essential 11.7 ii bzip2 1.0.6-7+b3 ii dpkg-dev 1.17.27 ii file 1:5.22+15-2+deb8u3 ii gettext 0.19.3-2 ii kmod 18-3 ii lzma 9.22-2 ii po-debconf 1.0.16+nmu3 ii xmlto 0.0.25-2 ii xz-utils [lzma] 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2+b3 Versions of packages kernel-package recommends: ii cpio 2.11+dfsg-4.1+deb8u1 ii docbook-utils 0.6.14-3 ii kernel-common 13.014+nmu1 pn uboot-mkimage <none> Versions of packages kernel-package suggests: ii libncurses5-dev [libncurses-dev] 5.9+20140913-1+b1 pn linux-source <none> -- no debconf information
