Package: ngspice Version: 26-1+b1 Versions of related packages:
elyxer 1.2.5-1 lyx 2.1.4-2 lyx-common 2.1.4-2 Building ngspice from source fails with the error "No information for exporting the format HTML.", generated by 'lyx --export html' in the documentation build stage. This is because, despite installing elyxer to comply with the ngspice Build-Depends, lyx remains unaware that it is available. Running 'dpkg-reconfigure lyx' and 'dpkg-reconfigure elyxer' did not help. The answer turned out to be to select "Tools -> Reconfigure" from within the lyx GUI. Having done this, building ngspice succeeds and the generated HTML documentation seems to be fine. The proper solution would therefore seem to be to invoke that same option by means of a command in the elyxer/lyx postinst script, but since I know zip about lyx I have no idea how this might be achieved. I am not sure where to report this bug because it is an FTBFS of one package caused by a configuration error involving two other packages. Please reassign if this is felt appropriate. -- Pigeon Be kind to pigeons - - Pigeon's Nest: http://pigeonsnest.co.uk/ GPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x21C61F7F
