Package: xmltex Version: 1.9-10 Severity: serious >From the bug log of #334613, while upgrading sid to tetex-bin_3.0-9 with xmltex installed:
Setting up tetex-bin (3.0-9) ... Running fmtutil-sys. This may take some time. ... Error: `tex -ini -jobname=xmltex -progname=xmltex &latex xmltex.ini' failed ############################################################################### fmtutil-sys: Error! Not all formats have been built successfully. Visit the log files in directory /var/lib/texmf/web2c for details. ############################################################################### The format creation fails because tetex now uses pdfetex as the engine to create the latex format, and formats that load latex.fmt as xmltex does must do the same. I didn't investigate this, but I would be surprised if this works with tetex-bin_2.0.2-31 in testing, because there we use etex, not tex, and I think this needs a different pool file, too, and therefore leads to incompatible formats.
