Interesting. From <URL:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-bin/+bug/1220653>: The Debian unstable changelog lists as additional changes over the Saucy version (among others): texlive-bin (2013.20130722.31261-1) unstable; urgency=low * allow for different origin in make-orig-tar * Imported Upstream version 2013.20130722.31261 - fix for crash of luatex on x32 archs in certain cases - update metapost to 1.803 * ship new pmpost patch for 1.803 * bump standards version, no changes necessary -- Norbert Preining <[email protected]> Fri, 26 Jul 2013 14:39:43 +0900 This would appear to be the relevant change regarding Metapost. So why isn't the Metapost 1.803 if tlmgr is 0733.31261 ? dak@lola:/usr/local/tmp/lilypond$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/tlmgr texlive-base: /usr/bin/tlmgr dak@lola:/usr/local/tmp/lilypond$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/mpost texlive-binaries: /usr/bin/mpost Oh wow. Different package. And indeed apt-get changelog texlive-base starts with texlive-base (2013.20130722-1) unstable; urgency=low * new upstream checkout * conflict with texlive common so that it gets removed (Closes: #710789) * add Polish debconf translation, thanks to Michał Kułach (Closes: #711235) * update tlmgr (and with new upstream also TLUtils.pm) to support map files in user mode -- Norbert Preining <[email protected]> Mon, 22 Jul 2013 17:35:16 +0900 While apt-get changelog texlive-binaries has texlive-bin (2013.20130529.30792-1build2) saucy; urgency=low * No-change rebuild for new poppler ABIs -- Iain Lane <[email protected]> Tue, 30 Jul 2013 17:02:46 +0000 Unfortunately, nobody seems to be interested in <URL:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-bin/+bug/1220653> -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
