But it would still be interesting to see the listing from the buggy system. You can use reportbug with some option to write to a file. >> And do you think you can reproduce this bug (e.g. by going back to the >> old state of the conffiles) and have the tetex-bin postinst script run >> with set -x in the function sanitize_texmfcnf? > > I cannot even reproduce the bug in a test chroot :-( If it would be easy to reproduce the bug in a chroot, it wouldn't have made its way into unstable. I tested many upgrades from sid to experimental. So if it is reproducible, it's probably on the system where it occurred first. Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ.
