I think update-dvipdfmx can do that. > The Debian maintainer of dvipdfmx decided to patch dvipdfmx to support > it.

That kind of worries me. I checked the patchs before NMU the package. But the patch was only for Japanese-TeX related package. If the patch make dvipdfmx read all configuration files from some directory, we can apply the patch because it can be used globally. But L10N patchs must not be applied to debian main package. Remember debian is not a project only for Japanese. Although the maintainer of dvipdfmx decided to apply L10N patch, I thought that's wrong. That's why I didn't apply the patch. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
