Package: texlive-base
Version: 2012.20120611-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Hello,
I have found a bug in /usr/bin/updmap (part of package texlive-binaries) which
is a symbolic link to /usr/share/texlive/texmf/scripts/tetex/updmap.pl
(part of texlive-base). A patch is attached.
I hope reportbug cancelled might first wrong bug report.
This program founds its configuration files as expected
(e.g. /etc/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg), but the option "dvipsDownloadBase35" is
not recognized. The option can be set to the string values "true" and "false",
but the "false" value is not recognized because the perl statement in
line 1048 (version in binary package) is wrong.
Instead of
if ($dvipsDownloadBase35)
which checks for a non-empty string, it must be
if ($dvipsDownloadBase35 eq "true")
to reach the else case, if option is set to "false".
Same if-expression is also used for the other options in the perl-script, e.g.
dvipsPreferOutline.
In the source package texlive-base_2012.20120611.orig.tar.xz the filename is
texmf/scripts/tetex/updmap.pl as indicated by the patch. The wrong statement
is at line 1026.
Greetings,
Martin
-- Package-specific info:
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: We will only consider bug reports concerning
the packaging of TeX Live as relevant. If you have problems with
combination of packages in a LaTeX document, please consult your
local TeX User Group, the comp.text.tex user group, the author of
the original .sty file, or any other help resource.
*** The Debian TeX Team is *no* LaTeX Help Desk ***
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.
Please run your example with
(pdf)latex -recorder ...
(or any other program that supports -recorder) and send us the generated
file with the extension .fls, it lists all the files loaded during
the run and can easily explain problems induced by outdated files in
your home directory.
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.minimalbeispiel.de/mini-en.html (english)
