Hi

If I install that thailatex deb manually wiht dpkg,
then tex-common manages to finish configuring.

0 root@sudan:~#dpkg --configure -a
Processing triggers for tex-common ...
Running mktexlsr. This may take some time... done.
Running mtxrun --generate. This may take some time... done.
Building latex-based formats --byhyphen
/var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat.
    This may take some time... done.
Building e-tex based formats --byhyphen
/var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.def.
    This may take some time... done.
0 root@sudan:~#

Will this fix make it into the texlive-backports PPA for precise?

Regards,
Jan
