Package: tex-common Version: 0.8 Severity: normal When invoking dpkg-reconfigure tex-common, it is possible to change permissions of ls-R files from anything (e.g. 644) to 664 by selecting the corresponding directory. However, when *deselecting* a directory, the permissions are not changed to 644, they are not touched at all.
Furthermore, LOCALTEXMF's ls-R file is only managed if it resides in /var/lib/texmf. Since there was no such symlink in older versions, we should either provide a transition (is fiddling with /usr/local allowed in maintainer scripts?), or at least document it.
