tex-common 0.38 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

tex-common (0.38) unstable; urgency=low

  * install update-fontlang and the three links all into /usr/bin
    and keep symlinks in /usr/sbin for old packages. Update the man page
    of update-fontlang. (Closes: #396822) [preining]
  * Clear up the description about user-specific configuration in
    TeX-on-Debian, many thanks to Géraud Meyer <email address hidden>
    (closes: #396823) [preining,frank]
  * Debconf translation updates: [frank]
    - French, thanks to Christian Perrier (closes: #395844)
    - Italian, thanks to Luca Monducci <email address hidden> (closes:
      #396101)
    - German, thanks to Helge Kreutzmann <email address hidden> (closes:
      #396036)
    - All others except the heavily outdated ca.po where unfuzzied by me,
      even in Japanese I can change "dpkg-dist" to "ucf-dist" [frank]

tex-common (0.37) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix bashism in postinst, thanks to Michael Biebl <email address hidden>
    (closes: #395274) [frank]

tex-common (0.36) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Depend on debconf (>= 1.4.69), which introduced the error template
    type (closes: #395032).  This broke upgrades, hence the urgency
    [frank] 
  * Fix format extraction regexp in dh_installtex, the format name must
    now be at the beginning of the line, without any leading whitespace,
    but hyphens are allowed in the name.  Thanks Ralf. [preining]
  * dh_installtex: Include only the minimal mktexlsr code in case no other
    installation is done (ie no maps, formats, languages).  Also add the
    ability to specify texmf trees on the command line, and only recreate
    the ls-R DB for /usr/share/texmf and /var/lib/texmf [preining]
    (Closes: #392359)
  * Add engine-specific paths to the TEXFORMATS and TEXFONTMAPS variables,
    and avoid triple slashes.  This is completely backwards-compatible (it
    only adds path components), and is needed for the planned separate
    context package.  Thanks to Ralf Stubner for the details!
    [preining,frank]

tex-common (0.35) unstable; urgency=low

  * Use local variables in debianize-updmap, so that the right file for
    enabling font maps will be found (closes: #393920) [frank]

tex-common (0.34) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Handle non-writable /usr/local gracefully upon removal, thanks to Sam
    Hocevar <email address hidden> (closes: #392518) [frank]
  * Change debianize-updmap so that the --syncwithtrees and --edit options
    do something sensible, and won't break the system. Together with the
    upload of tetex-bin 3.0-22, this will close #392573 and #334747.
    [frank]
  * Add a check for shadowed config files to update-fontlang [preining]
  * Move and extend the teTeX README.Debian to TeX-on-Debian Documentation
    [frank, preining]
  * Move po-debconf from Build-Depends-Indep to Build-Depends, since it's
    used in the clean target of debian/rules. [florent]
  * Adjust the TEXMFCNF setting in conf/texmf.d/85Misc.cnf to reflect the
    change in tetex-bin 3.0-22. [frank, florent]

tex-common (0.33) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Fix syntax error in debianize-updmap (closes: #391976).  Also, the
    logic in the script has been fixed, so that it actually works [frank]
  * Add an additional check to update-* scripts in case users shadow their
    generated files with files in TEXMFCONFIG. [preining]

tex-common (0.32) unstable; urgency=medium

  * adapted sanity check in update-fontlang to TEXMFSYSCONFIG = /etc/texmf
    (closes: #391348) [ralf]
  * Provide a tetex-bin-update script.  This allows also texlive to
    properly rename an old tetex-bin conffile, and add the magic comment,
    and is therefore needed for a transition from teTeX to TeXlive without
    upgrading teTeX to the etch version first [frank]
  * Install debianize-updmap into the scripts dir [frank]
  * Provide the debianize-updmap functions in /usr/share/tex-common, for
    usage by all TeX systems in Debian [frank]
  * Changed the order of trees in TEXMFDIST.  If TeXlive and teTeX
    packages are installed together, files from TeXlive now take
    precedence.  This makes sense because those files are usually
    newer. [frank] 

tex-common (0.31) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Document in policy that font cache data have to be cleaned by packages
    that Build-Depend on TeX, and how to do that (closes: #388399) [frank]
  * On systems upgraded from woody to sarge, tetex-bin generated a bogus
    local configuration file with entries that were erroneously detected
    as locally changed.  These entries are now harmful and break texlive,
    and the file is therefore renamed if it meets our expectations
    (closes: #391355) [frank]
  * In 95NonPath.cnf, add a comment about how to redump the format file
    (closes: #380323) [frank]

tex-common (0.30) unstable; urgency=high

  * update-fontlang:  If a conffile has a corresponding dpkg-new file,
    that is, it is from a yet-unconfigured package, drop it any case.
    Previously, the check was only done when the file had a magic comment,
    but conffiles in sarge generally do not have this magic.  Therefore,
    upgrades from sarge would have failed if the conffile change is needed for
    proper configuration (closes: #389550) [frank] 
  * Remove the medium-priority debconf note without replacement; anybody
    who really runs into the problem will be able to find the information
    in tetex-bin's README.Debian (closes: #388973) [frank]

tex-common (0.29) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Add missing function and variable declarations to preinst, thanks to
    Hilmar (closes: #385532) [frank]
  * Do not load debconf manually in postrm, it isn't needed at all, thanks
    to Bill Allombert <email address hidden> (closes: #388156) [frank]

tex-common (0.28) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix spelling of "medium" in the last upload
  * Remove jadetex settings from texmf.d (closes: #384333) [frank]
  * Add a paragraph to the Policy how to handle format creation when
    latex.fmt or other basic formats are needed [frank]

tex-common (0.27) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Policy Change:  Treat configuration files properly as Debian Policy
    mandates.  The only TeX-specific addition is that we remind
    maintainers to only treat files for site-wide changes as configuration
    files, not files intended to change the typeset output on a
    per-document or per-project basis.  Consequently, mktex.cnf is now
    installed as /etc/texmf/web2c/mktex.cnf.  Thanks to Manoj Srivastava!
    This closes: #379089, a RC bug, hence the medium urgency [frank]
  * Really install NEWS.Debian about the font cache changes in the last
    upload [frank]
  * Update changelog for 0.16. We forgot to close two bugs. [hilmar-guest]
  * Debconf Translations: [frank]
    - Update Dutch translation, thanks to Vincent Zweije
      <email address hidden> (closes: #379234)
    - Update Spanish translation, thanks to Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña
      <email address hidden> (closes: #382967)

tex-common (0.26) unstable; urgency=low

  * Font data are now cached separately for each user, or in /tmp/texfonts
    when there is no writable home directory.  Thus we could get rid of
    the complicated debconf questions related to that issue (there's still
    one note left) (closes: #376050, #366805, #368411).  Many thanks to
    Ralf Stubner for his "braindump".
  
    This change requires installation of a file in a TEXMF tree; we
    therefore run mktexlsr if it is available. [frank]

  * Debconf Translations: [frank]
    - Updated Czech translation, thanks to Miroslav Kure
      <email address hidden>
    - Updated Japanese translation, thank to Kenshi Muto

    - Updated Swedish translation, thanks to Daniel Nylander

    - Updated Lithuanian translation, thanks to Kęstutis Biliūnas
      <email address hidden>
  
  * common.functions.in: [florent]
      + change create_tetex_formats() so that fmtutil-sys is run in a
        temporary directory; otherwise, it may use files lying in the
        current directory, which can cause bad surprises. This will close
        #377581 when propagated to the various packages using this function
        in their maintainer scripts.
      + replace `command args ...` with $(command args ...) everywhere in
        the file.

  * Updated Maintainer field to use new mailing list [jdg]
