I would suggest posting it on the texhax mailing list and maybe in addition on the TeX Live mailing list (although that is for development of TeX Live) and hope that someone has found a way to fix this problem. > >The TeX live team seems to think (rather I should say the only member > >who has weighed in on the subject, [email protected]) seems to think First of all, please mind your words what you are talking about, there are several layers here: - upstream author of the package (here sometimes referred to as upupstream) - the TeX Live team which develops TeX Live - the Debian TeX Team packaging TeX Live and other TeX related things for Debian It so happens that I am doing most work on the Debian Team and at the same time one of the core developers of TeX Live team itself. But we (and here I mean *both* the TeX Live Team as well as the Debian TeX Team) do NOT intend to fix bugs in packages by ourselves, that is far over our time and capabilities (ever checked how many files there are in TeX Live, and how many packages?). Anyway, thanks for contacting upupstream.
