Re: dvipdft is missing?

[Thomas Esser]

 We, tetex maintainers of Debian, got the bug which said
 that teTeX 2.0 included dvipdfm but a wrapper script
 dvipdft was missing (in the teTeX 2.0 source tree).

When I added dvipdfm to teTeX, I have looked at the dvipdft and found
that it writes to /tmp in an insecure way. Then, just before making the
teTeX-2.0 release, I have forgotten that item...

 Apparently, dvipdft was referenced in a manual page of dvipdfm.
 Is there any chance that dvipdft will be included in teTeX?

Yes, but not the original script. It needs to be fixed for security.

dvipdft is missing?

[Atsuhito Kohda]

Hi all,

We, tetex maintainers of Debian, got the bug which said
that teTeX 2.0 included dvipdfm but a wrapper script
dvipdft was missing (in the teTeX 2.0 source tree).

civic:~/misc/pack/teTeX/ORIG$ tar ztvf tetex-src-2.0.tar.gz | grep dvipdft
civic:~/misc/pack/teTeX/ORIG$ 

Apparently, dvipdft was referenced in a manual page of dvipdfm.
Is there any chance that dvipdft will be included in teTeX?
