Hi Frank, I notice in your patch for this bug you left the following section of the postinst intact:
if [ ! -f /etc/texmf/jadetex/$fmt.ini ]; then
warn "/etc/texmf/jadetex/$fmt.ini not found, skipping $fmt memory dump"
warn "If you wish to use JadeTeX, you will have to create the dump
manually"
warn "or else purge then reinstall this package to restore default
configuration."
return 0
elif [ ! -f ${FMTCNF} ]; then
warn "$FMTCNF is missing but should be there; report this bug please"
return 1
[...]
fi
This means that if /etc/texmf/fmt.d/40jadetex.cnf has been removed, which is
a valid state for a conffile to be in, upgrades of the package will fail.
Is this the desired behavior? If not, should this "elif" also be removed
from the script, or should 40jadetex.cnf be restored IFF it's missing (in
which case, it should not be a conffile)?
Thanks,
