I uninstalled a load of tex packages and tried apt-get build-dep roxterm again and it didn't want to install anything beyond xmlto. But I'm sure when I ran apt-get build-dep roxterm recently it downloaded lots of tex packages, and there are no other likely looking candidates. Perhaps those dependencies have been removed from xmlto (or moved to Suggests: by the look of it). And it might have been on one of the Ubuntu machines I sometimes use. -- TH * http://www.realh.co.uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
