 With your permission (I hope!) I'm downgrading the severity to
 important until a similar situation arises for someone else so we can
 track down the problem.

Since a year and a half and a Debian release have gone since this bug
report was filed and no further reports have come, I am assuming that
this bug arose due to some reason other than tex4ht.

Hence I am closing it. If you can reproduce the bug please feel free
to re-open.

Thanks and regards,

Kapil.

Installing tex4ht-common fails with this error message:

update-texmf: Basic configuration file /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf
missing.

It can be (quick)fixed doing a touch /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf

I'm quite puzzled by this bug.

As I understand it the program update-texmf is provided by
tex-common nowadays whereas it was provided by tetex-bin
for the version you have. In either case, the file
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf should have been installed by
one or the other of these packages (in your case tetex-bin)
*before* update-texmf was invoked by the tex4ht-common installation.

 Versions of packages tex4ht-common depends on:
 ii  tetex-bin 2.0.2-31   The teTeX binary files

Checking your specific bug report is made additionally difficult
by the fact that this version of tetex-bin is no longer on the
archive. Could you perhaps check with an earlier or later version
of tetex-bin?

Regards,

Kapil.
