Package: rubber
Version: 1.3-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
This is a followup on Bug #798991. rubber no longer crashes when the
bibliography is a symbolic link as described there, but it doesn't
work correctly either: it keeps rerunning bibtex, regardless of
whether the bibliography has changed or not. Here's a minimal example;
note how many times bibtex was run.
(Again, pre-1.2 behavior was fine.)
Best,
Dylan
