Bug#418674: tex-common: tex does not look in /usr/share (only in /etc); can't find article.cls

2007-04-11 Thread Bruce MacDonald
Package: tex-common
Version: 1.4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


After upgrading to tex-common which just came in to the repository, latex 
cannot find article.cls. Strace shows it is looking in /etc/ but not in 
/usr/share. 
Downgrading to the previous tex-common removes this problem. When creating this 
bug report, I was told that this version is ahead of the current debian 
version, which is puzzling.

Thanks, 1.5 fixes this and will arrive with the next dinstall run.
It was a missing path entry in texmf.cnf

Best wishes
