Package: texlive-base Version: 2017.20170629-1 Severity: normal File: /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoctk/texdoctk.pl
Dear Maintainer, I started texdoctk from the command line, a dialog popped out stating Couldn't open system-wide default config file texdocrc.defaults and the only possible action consisted in a button that, clicked, closed the program. The problem lies in the following line, line 73 in /usr/bin/texdoctk my $sysrc=`kpsewhich --progname=texdoctk --format=${qq}other text files${qq} ${TeXDocRcDefaults}`; When I try, from the command line, the equivalent(?) command $ kpsewhich --progname=texdoctk --format='other text files' texdocrc.defaults all I get is nothing, i.e., kpsewhich cannot tell the location of texdocrc.defaults file (it's in /etc/texmf/texdoctk/texdocrc.defaults but you know that). As a temporary measure I simply hardwired the actual location of the configuration file into the executable script, because I have always kept myself away from everything kpathsea related ... Thank you in advance, gb ###################################### List of ls-R files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2513 Jul 19 09:34 /var/lib/texmf/ls-R lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Jun 24 14:20 /usr/share/texmf/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXMFMAIN lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Jun 29 04:30 /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVEDIST lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Jun 29 04:30 /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVEDIST ###################################### Config files lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Jun 29 04:30 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf -> ../../texlive/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Jun 29 04:30 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf -> /var/lib/texmf/fmtutil.cnf-DEBIAN lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Jun 29 04:30 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg -> /var/lib/texmf/updmap.cfg-DEBIAN -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4359 Jul 19 09:33 /var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat ###################################### Files in /etc/texmf/web2c/ total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 283 Oct 14 2015 mktex.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 475 Jun 30 16:19 texmf.cnf ###################################### md5sums of texmf.d ca40c66f144b4bafc3e59a2dd32ecb9c /etc/texmf/texmf.d/00debian.cnf -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages texlive-base depends on: ii debconf 1.5.63 ii libpaper-utils 1.1.24+nmu5 ii tex-common 6.07 ii texlive-binaries 2017.20170613.44572-3 ii ucf 3.0036 ii xdg-utils 1.1.1-1 Versions of packages texlive-base recommends: ii lmodern 2.004.5-3 Versions of packages texlive-base suggests: ii evince [postscript-viewer] 3.22.1-4 ii ghostscript [postscript-viewer] 9.21~dfsg-1 ii gv [postscript-viewer] 1:3.7.4-1+b1 ii mupdf [pdf-viewer] 1.9a+ds1-4 ii perl-tk 1:804.033-2 ii xpdf [pdf-viewer] 3.04-4 Versions of packages tex-common depends on: ii dpkg 1.18.24 ii ucf 3.0036 Versions of packages tex-common suggests: ii debhelper 10.6.4 Versions of packages texlive-base is related to: ii tex-common 6.07 ii texlive-binaries 2017.20170613.44572-3 -- debconf information: texlive-base/binary_chooser: pdftex, dvips, dvipdfmx, xdvi texlive-base/texconfig_ignorant:
