Hello, I'm pretty new to bugfixing in Ubuntu and I have been having very strange problems when trying to get the source code.
Specifically I have been trying to fix this bug <https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1494506>, and trying to download this repository <https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/org-mode> (I have been following this guide <http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/fixing-a-bug.html> which I hope is not outdated). Running the following command bzr branch lp:ubuntu/wily/org-mode gives me a Packaging branch status: OUT-OF-DATE and trying to download the version for vivid gives bzr: ERROR: Revision {[email protected]} not present in "Graph(StackedParentsProvider(bzrlib.repository._LazyListJoin(([CachingParentsProvider(None)], []))))". Downloading the package for wily gives me the source code, but I am worried about the fact that it is out of date. When I try and build the package using the tutorials steps <http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/fixing-a-bug.html#testing-the-fix> pbuilder fails with the below message ./org.texi:6678: ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced! Transcript written on org.log. /usr/bin/texi2dvi: pdfetex exited with bad status, quitting. Makefile:291: recipe for target 'doc/org.pdf' failed make[1]: *** [doc/org.pdf] Error 1 I am not sure if this is due to the out-of-date status of the package. I have been having this problem with many of the other bugs from ubuntu-papercuts and I am not sure if it is a problem with my workflow or with the packages themselves. I have been following all of the documentation I can find, but some packages build and others simply refuse to. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I appreciate any help and direction that can be given. Best, David
