Heh. Neither did I, until a number of packages failed in this way. > However: Are you mass bug filing all packages having texi2html in the > build-depends? No, I'm reporting bugs against packages that fail to build as my autobuilder finds them.

That's a good idea. I'll see if I can figure out exactly which packages fail to build, then send a message to debian-devel asking if anyone objects to your plan. -- Matt
