Confliction with Tetex

[sataere]

There is a direct conflict between CWEB and TeTeX, when CWEB is supposed to be no more than a set of utilities to be used with TeTeX. This is definitely a package bug, as it renders CWEB perfectly useless.

CWEB is a development method, where the program is written in C, and documented in TeX, all in one file. CWEB utilities then split the file into TeX and C files for compiling into a working program and documentation, using TeX and C compilers.

Under Gentoo, there is no problem in keeping CWEB and TeTeX on the same system. Which is as it should be, considering CWEB is nothing without a utility to compile TeX files.

A working makefile for CWEB is located here: http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djpratt/Makefile.ubuntu

Edited makefile, works perfectly with Ubuntu.: http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djpratt/Makefile.ubuntu

I have provided a link to a makefile that compiles and works perfectly under my fresh Ubuntu installation.

I don't see the link. Am I missing something? Thank you.

Ping to the submitter before closing this bug.. Thank you.

The link is along the right, under "web links," but I have also added it to the description.

[Barry deFreese (bddebian)]

OK, this is old. Is this still a bug? Also, I am assuming that your link is a new Makefile, since it is not diff or patch of any kind?

Thanks.

Actually it appears that cweb has been removed from the archives since Dapper, so I am rejecting this bug.
