Package: texlive-extra-utils Version: 2023.20240207-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I have a paper written in LaTeX that the publisher required to not contain any user macro, so I used de-macro to produce a distributable version with a Makefile target. Today I tried to recreate the distributable paper, and when de-macro was called, as: de-macro Paer.tex I received the error: bash: /usr/bin/de-macro: cannot execute: required file not found however, using: python3 $(which de-macro) Paper.tex works. inspecting the installed de-macro script i found that the cause is the shebang, that is set as: #!/usr/bin/python -O which fails unless package python-is-python3 is installed (I didn't bother checking if it works with python2). The shebang should be changed to use a versioned python executable, since python-is-python3 should not be a dependency of any other package. Thank you for your precious work maintaining the texlive ecosystem. -- Package-specific info: IMPORTANT INFORMATION: We will only consider bug reports concerning the packaging of TeX Live as relevant. If you have problems with combination of packages in a LaTeX document, please consult your local TeX User Group, the comp.text.tex user group, the author of the original .sty file, or any other help resource. In particular, bugs that are related to up-upstream, i.e., neither Debian nor TeX Live (upstream), but the original package authors, will be closed immediately. *** The Debian TeX Team is *not* a LaTeX Help Desk *** If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries (latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the error in your report. Please run your example with (pdf)latex -recorder ... (or any other program that supports -recorder) and send us the generated file with the extension .fls, it lists all the files loaded during the run and can easily explain problems induced by outdated files in your home directory. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures! If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem), you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that can be found at http://www.minimalbeispiel.de/mini-en.html (english) or http://www.minimalbeispiel.de/mini.html (german) ################################## minimal input file ################################## other files ###################################### List of ls-R files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2944 Mar 3 23:28 /var/lib/texmf/ls-R lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Oct 12 2022 /usr/share/texmf/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXMFMAIN lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Feb 14 09:08 /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVEDIST lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Feb 14 09:08 /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVEDIST ###################################### Config files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 475 Nov 1 02:41 /etc/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Feb 14 09:08 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf -> /var/lib/texmf/fmtutil.cnf-DEBIAN lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Feb 14 09:08 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg -> /var/lib/texmf/updmap.cfg-DEBIAN -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5334 Mar 3 23:22 /var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat ###################################### Files in /etc/texmf/web2c/ total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 283 Apr 1 2019 mktex.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 475 Nov 1 02:41 texmf.cnf ###################################### md5sums of texmf.d ca40c66f144b4bafc3e59a2dd32ecb9c /etc/texmf/texmf.d/00debian.cnf -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers oldstable-security APT policy: (500, 'oldstable-security'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.6.15-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=it_IT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=it_IT:it Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages texlive-extra-utils depends on: ii libfile-homedir-perl 1.006-2 ii libunicode-linebreak-perl 0.0.20190101-1+b6 ii libyaml-tiny-perl 1.74-1 ii python3 3.11.6-1 ii tex-common 6.18 ii texlive-base 2023.20240207-1 ii texlive-binaries 2023.20230311.66589-9 ii texlive-latex-base 2023.20240207-1 ii texlive-luatex 2023.20240207-1 ii texlive-plain-generic 2023.20240207-1 Versions of packages texlive-extra-utils recommends: ii ghostscript 10.02.1~dfsg-3 ii liblog-log4perl-perl 1.57-1 ii ruby 1:3.1 ii texlive-latex-recommended 2023.20240207-1 Versions of packages texlive-extra-utils suggests: ii chktex 1.7.8-1 ii default-jre-headless 2:1.17-75 ii dvidvi 1.0-10.2 ii dvipng 1.15-1.1+b1 ii fragmaster 1.7-11 ii lacheck 1.26-17 ii latexdiff 1.3.2-1 ii latexmk 1:4.83-1 ii purifyeps 1.1-3 pn xindy <none> Versions of packages tex-common depends on: ii ucf 3.0043+nmu1 Versions of packages tex-common suggests: ii debhelper 13.14.1 Versions of packages texlive-extra-utils is related to: ii tex-common 6.18 ii texlive-binaries 2023.20230311.66589-9 -- no debconf information
