Product: tetex-latex-arab
Component: packaging
Summary: tetex-latex-arab in Mandrake 9.2RC2 contains a lot of
redundant files that's eating valuable space, besides
it's an old version too.
Product: tetex-latex-arab
Version: 3.09f-4mdk
Platform: PC
URL: ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/pub/arabtex/
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: packaging

In Mandrake 9.2RC2 distro arabtex is packaged as tetex-latex-arab. Package info (rpm
-ql tetex-latex-arab) give something like this
"/usr/share/texmf/tex/arabtex
/usr/share/texmf/tex/arabtex/abidir.sty
/usr/share/texmf/tex/arabtex/abjad.sty
...
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/arabtex
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/arabtex/abidir.sty
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/arabtex/abjad.sty
... "
As you can see all the files are repeated in two places. This bug eats valuable space
from Mandrake. Also I want to point out that this version is a very old one which has
many problems. As a Mandrake Club member I voted for version 3.11b to be included in
9.2 since it solves all the problems I am aware of, but couldn't see any movement
towards this. I hope someone will make the rpm package available.
