Dear dpkg maintainers,
I have a question concerning dpkg-query, it seems that the semantics
of it has changed:
Currently, when I call
dpkg-query -W -f='${Status}' texlive-base
it returns 1 (error) if texlive-base is not installed (or going to
be installed).
This breaks installation of tex-common with texlive-binaries, but without
texlive-base.
As far as I remember in former times this was working, so is this a
recent change, and was it intended, or is this a coding error from
our side.
In principle what we are doing the in the tex-common trigger action
is to check whether texlive-base is installed, and if it is we run
some commands.
Thanks and all the best
Norbert
