THis is out of my understanding?
It happens when texlive-latex-bin's postinst is run, which runs fmtutil-sys --all. > Frank, do you understand this? I don't understand why it didn't happen before. It seems that this happens when jadetex is installed together with teTeX, and then during the upgrade to sid teTeX's info about latex is removed before texlive's is added. And it can happen in any situation again, we have actually two bugs here: - We should to prevent jadetex from trying to be created when no latex information is present - we need to do something about the fork bomb.
