If you want, please file a separate bug - but don't expect us to work on a patch until we're really bored. Regards, Frank -- Dr. Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f.

No, but why should we patch the upstream sources? It would just be another source of errors, and the single bugreport we get per year doesn't do much harm (but helps the reporter a bit...)

Bug#420551: fmtutil-sys failure on ARM on dist-upgrade
Package: texlive-base-bin Version: 2005.dfsg.2-12 I just tried to upgrade my ARM's chroot from sid from a few weeks ago to current etch and texlive-latex-base fails to install. Unfortunately, the new texlive-base-bin is not available on ARM so I don't know whether this has been fixed. I'll see whether I can build the new version.
