--- Begin Message ---Package: tetex-bin Version: 2.0.2-25 Severity: normal pdflatex generates a PDF file containing truncated seminar slides. Here's an example: \documentclass[a4]{seminar} \usepackage{aeguill} \input seminar.bug \input seminar.bg2 \begin{document} \begin{slide} \centerline{Slide Test} \end{slide} \end{document} All PDF viewers (GPL Ghostscript 8.01, gv 3.6.1, xpdf 3.00, acroread 4) display the generated slides truncated on the right. So, I assume that the problem comes from the generated PDF file, not from the viewers. Note that there's no such problem with latex + dvips + ps2pdf (except with gv -- perhaps bug #142228 for this one). -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-dixsept Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages tetex-bin depends on: ii debconf 1.4.41 Debian configuration management sy ii debianutils 2.11.2 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii dpkg 1.10.25 Package maintenance system for Deb ii ed 0.2-20 The classic unix line editor ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-7 GCC support library ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libkpathsea3 2.0.2-25 path search library for teTeX (run ii libpaper1 1.1.14-3 Library for handling paper charact ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-1 PNG library - runtime ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-6 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libt1-5 5.0.2-3 Type 1 font rasterizer library - r ii libwww0 5.4.0-9 The W3C WWW library ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System protocol client li ii libxaw7 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Athena widget set library ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxmu6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxt6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii mime-support 3.29-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap ii perl 5.8.4-5 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii sed 4.1.2-8 The GNU sed stream editor ii tetex-base 2.0.2c-3 Basic library files of teTeX ii ucf 1.13 Update Configuration File: preserv ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime -- debconf information: tetex-bin/updmap-failed: tetex-bin/hyphen: french[=patois], ngerman[=naustrian-neue_Rechtschreibung] tetex-bin/oldcfg: true tetex-bin/upd_map: true tetex-bin/cnf_name: tetex-bin/fmtutil: true tetex-bin/use_debconf: false tetex-bin/fmtutil-failed: tetex-bin/groupname: users tetex-bin/userperm: false tetex-bin/groupperm: true tetex-bin/lsr-perms: true

--- Begin Message ---Dear bug submitter, the bug you have submitted against one of the TeX packages concerns not the Debian packaging of TeX Live, nor the upstream TeX Live distribution itself, but Up-upstream, the original author of the respective package. TeX Live only collects what authors provide. Thus, neither we, the Debian TeX Team, nor the Upstream TeX Live team can fix anything regarding this bug. Furthermore, the bug you have reported is rather old. We suggest you to do the following: * verify that the bug is still present with current TeX Live (2013) installation on Debian * if yes, please report the bug to the *original* author of the TeX package, and *not* to upstream TeX Live nor Debian Other ways to deal with these bugs are requesting help from TeX experts, your local TeX consultant, or local TeX User Groups. One good place to ask questions is the newsgroup comp.text.tex, or the StackExchange website http://tex.stackexchange.com Thanks a lot for your understanding Norbert ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PREINING, Norbert http://www.preining.info JAIST, Japan TeX Live & Debian Developer DSA: 0x09C5B094 fp: 14DF 2E6C 0307 BE6D AD76 A9C0 D2BF 4AA3 09C5 B094 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
