Hi Georges,
I set up a VM with buster. I did some minor changes to the sourcecode of
mediawiki2latex and everything compiles now on buster without warnings.
The only thing is that I can not test it on buster since something seems
to be wrong with xelatex on buster in general, I get some warning like
"I can't find the format file xelatex.fmt". I also get errors when I try
to install xelatex with apt-get, especially about language packs. What
do you propose? Should I just publish a new release of mediawiki2latex.
I think its currently the best thing to do, since this will keep
mediawiki2latex in debian, an there will be a realistic chance that the
problems with xelatex will be solved by others.
Yours Dirk

Dear Dirk,
I created a git repository to manage debian packaging at salsa.debian.org,
and then modified slightly one debain patch to take your proposition in
account.
Unfortunately, the package still FTNFS.
Maybe you would like to create an account at https://salsa.debian.org
and either fork and request some pulls or become a direct maintainer of
https://salsa.debian.org/georgesk/mediawiki2latex
Please find attached the build log for my last build attempt, which is
synchronized with the current state of the repository mentioned above.
Best regards, Georges.

Hi Georges,
Hi Santiago,
to me it looks that the line "Font" in the section "Other-Modules:" in the
file "mediawiki2latex.cabal" needs to be removed to fix the issue. @Georges
is it easy for you to create a patch to fix that, or should I better release
a new version?
Yours Dirk

Dear maintainer:

The build was made with "dpkg-buildpackage -B" in my autobuilder.
Most probably, it also fails here in reproducible builds:
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/mediawiki2latex.html
where you can get a full build log if you need it.
If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use reassign and
affects,
so that this is still visible in the BTS web page for this package.
Thanks.
