The latest upload of chktex FTBFS when TERM is not set, e.g. on reproducible builds [1], where it built previously. I've copied what I hope is the relevant part of the log below. The following patch works for me: --- a/debian/rules +++ b/debian/rules @@ -6,6 +6,9 @@ # Ensure texlive respects SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH export FORCE_SOURCE_DATE=1 +# Prevent FTBFS when TERM is not set +export TERM=linux + %: dh $@ Regards Graham [1] https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/chktex.html dh_auto_test make -j15 test "TESTSUITEFLAGS=-j15 --verbose" VERBOSE=1 make[1]: Entering directory '/build/1st/chktex-1.7.6' ./chktex -mall ./Test.tex ./chktex: WARNING -- Could not find global resource file.
