Package: texlive-base-bin Version: 2007-12 Severity: normal Hi,
I'm not sure if this problem has been addressed before since I'm just beginning to use powerdot in texlive-latex-recommended package. It has been reported in powerdot's mailing list that some powerdot documents fail to get proper page sizes in pdf format through dvips: http://www.freelists.org/archives/powerdot/05-2007/msg00019.html And a solution, replacing config.ps with a newer one, is also posted in the bug report of texlive2007: http://tug.org/texlive/bugs.html I wonder if the current config.ps shipped by texlive-base-bin could be replaced with the newer one? Or is there any potential problems which prohibit such a simple displacement? Thank you. -- Package-specific info: If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries (latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the error in your report. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures! If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem), you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that can be found at http://www.latex-einfuehrung.de/mini-en.html (english) or http://www.latex-einfuehrung.de/mini.html (german) ################################## minimal input file ################################## other files ###################################### List of ls-R files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1121 2007-07-02 03:22 /var/lib/texmf/ls-R lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2007-06-21 21:42 /usr/share/texmf/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXMFMAIN lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 2007-06-21 21:42 /usr/share/texmf-texlive/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVE lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 2007-06-21 21:42 /usr/share/texmf-texlive/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVE ###################################### Config files lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2007-06-21 21:42 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf -> /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4932 2007-07-02 03:21 /var/lib/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8546 2007-07-02 03:21 /var/lib/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4292 2007-07-02 03:21 /var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat ###################################### Files in /etc/texmf/web2c/ total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 283 2006-08-16 23:02 mktex.cnf ###################################### md5sums of texmf.d 25bf3a257a0bedb5c67349c3eaff74af /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf 5f7f6652cc8b8071c9e4ea6ba9e9f0a1 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/15Plain.cnf 8a26468004b5ebc7ae9884740356c1d0 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/45TeXinputs.cnf ea33127256c6a9f37145ae5b16fdb80c /etc/texmf/texmf.d/55Fonts.cnf afccf1d3f87057411166a77c58e00bd1 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/65BibTeX.cnf 9da7c1c7b1eaf06f941af91f48a23068 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/75DviPS.cnf 7ae52efac46feb97010986e57877d12e /etc/texmf/texmf.d/80DVIPDFMx.cnf e36faa13563bdb46303b91ab3f6ea638 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/85Misc.cnf 7e8f87acdeba48edac16d851c77b9e75 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/90TeXDoc.cnf 30f4f13357c2761ed01a6a15f28725a5 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/95NonPath.cnf -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages texlive-base-bin depends on: ii ed 0.2-20 The classic unix line editor ii libc6 2.5-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libkpathsea4 2007-12 TeX Live: path search library for ii libncurses5 5.6-3 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng12-0 1.2.15~beta5-2 PNG library - runtime ii libpoppler1 0.5.4-6 PDF rendering library ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxaw7 1:1.0.3-3 X11 Athena Widget library ii libxmu6 1:1.0.3-1 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxpm4 1:3.5.6-3 X11 pixmap library ii libxt6 1:1.0.5-3 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii mime-support 3.39-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap ii perl 5.8.8-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii texlive-common 2007-10 TeX Live: Base component ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages texlive-base-bin recommends: ii perl-tk 1:804.027-7 Perl module providing the Tk graph Versions of packages tex-common depends on: ii debconf 1.5.13 Debian configuration management sy ii ucf 3.001 Update Configuration File: preserv Versions of packages texlive-base-bin is related to: pn tetex-base <none> (no description available) ii tetex-bin 2007-10 TeX Live: teTeX transitional packa pn tetex-extra <none> (no description available) ii tex-common 1.9 Common infrastructure for using an -- debconf information: tex-common/check_texmf_wrong: tex-common/check_texmf_missing: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
