Dear all,
I have a question for sure stemming from my misunderstanding of triggers.
tex-common ships dh_installtex which makes installation of fonts etc
for TeX system easy, and it is used in quite some packages. We use
triggers (on popolar demand) since the most expensive operation is
the update of the font maps (calling updmap-sys), which is handled
by triggers.
Now in the generated postinst snippets we have some down there
update-texmf-config updmap
which in turn calls
dpkg-trigger texmf-updmap
Now when doing
dpkg-reconfigure one-of-the-font-packages
I get
dpkg-trigger: dpkg-trigger must be called from a maintainer script (or
with a --by-package option)
I though well, yes, it is called from a maintainer script (postinst configure)
and the package should be clear. But why does dpkg-trigger complain?
Thanks for any explanation
Norbert

DUNBAR (n.)
A highly specialised fiscal term used solely by turnstile
operatives at Regnet's Part zoo. It refers to the variable amount of
increase in the variable gate takings on a Sunday afternoon, caused by
persons going to the zoo because they are in love and believe that the
feeling of romance will be somehow enhanced by the smell of panther
sweat and rank incontinence in the reptile house.
