Package: tetex-base Version: 3.0-6 Severity: normal I was running tetex 3.0-4 that I grabbed from experimental and it worked fine.
I saw that Frank Küster had tetex 3.0-6 for sarge on his page at p.d.o and I tried to use that to upgrade the version that I have here to help debug the packages, but after running "apt-get dist-upgrade", the installation of tetex-base is broken. The problem seems to be in tetex-base.postinst, where a call to update-language is made. Here is a small snippet of the installation problems that I had: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - (...) + set +x Setting up tetex-base (3.0-6) ... /var/lib/dpkg/info/tetex-base.postinst: line 406: update-language: command not found dpkg: error processing tetex-base (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of tetex-bin: tetex-bin depends on tetex-base (>= 3.0-4); however: Package tetex-base is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing tetex-bin (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Setting up tetex-doc (3.0-6) ... mktexlsr: Updating /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXMFMAIN... mktexlsr: Done. dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of tetex-extra: tetex-extra depends on tetex-base; however: Package tetex-base is not configured yet. tetex-extra depends on tetex-bin (>= 2.99); however: Package tetex-bin is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing tetex-extra (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: tetex-base tetex-bin tetex-extra E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) dumont:~# - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - If any extra information is necessary, please let me know.
