Package: texlive-base-bin Version: 2007.dfsg.2-4 Severity: normal When I create a dvi file (using any latex file) xdvi opens the dvi file, but it looks garbled on the screen. I use pdflatex which works.
When submitting this bug I found that debconf is returning errors (see below), but I don't know how to fix these errors. -- Package-specific info: ################################## minimal input file \documentclass{article} \begin{document} Hello world. \end{document} ################################## other files ###################################### List of ls-R files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 912 Feb 16 16:29 /var/lib/texmf/ls-R -rw-rw-r-- 1 root staff 79 Dec 14 20:40 /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Nov 22 18:25 /usr/share/texmf/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXMFMAIN lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Feb 1 16:32 /usr/share/texmf-texlive/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVE lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Feb 1 16:32 /usr/share/texmf-texlive/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVE ###################################### Config files lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Nov 22 18:25 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf -> /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6466 Feb 16 16:29 /var/lib/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8991 Feb 16 16:29 /var/lib/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5253 Feb 16 16:29 /var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat ###################################### Files in /etc/texmf/web2c/ total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 283 Feb 26 2007 mktex.cnf ###################################### md5sums of texmf.d 42c20d7e8bd343542772b5a145bf8ad8 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf 5f7f6652cc8b8071c9e4ea6ba9e9f0a1 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/15Plain.cnf f68e5add6afd6585b982f2f78e2e6a92 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/45TeXinputs.cnf ea33127256c6a9f37145ae5b16fdb80c /etc/texmf/texmf.d/55Fonts.cnf afccf1d3f87057411166a77c58e00bd1 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/65BibTeX.cnf 9da7c1c7b1eaf06f941af91f48a23068 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/75DviPS.cnf 7ae52efac46feb97010986e57877d12e /etc/texmf/texmf.d/80DVIPDFMx.cnf 37329819f1109e8a457e64b8b58fecdb /etc/texmf/texmf.d/85Misc.cnf a8952d594677235951d447665ec46e9c /etc/texmf/texmf.d/90TeXDoc.cnf 30f4f13357c2761ed01a6a15f28725a5 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/95NonPath.cnf -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages texlive-base-bin depends on: ii ed 0.7-3 The classic unix line editor ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.3.2-1.1 GCC support library ii libkpathsea4 2007.dfsg.2-4 TeX Live: path search library for ii libncurses5 5.7+20081213-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng12-0 1.2.27-2 PNG library - runtime ii libpoppler3 0.8.7-1 PDF rendering library ii libstdc++6 4.3.2-1.1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.1.5-2 X11 client-side library ii libxaw7 2:1.0.4-2 X11 Athena Widget library ii libxmu6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxpm4 1:3.5.7-1 X11 pixmap library ii libxt6 1:1.0.5-3 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii mime-support 3.44-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap ii perl 5.10.0-19 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii texlive-common 2007.dfsg.1-5 TeX Live: Base component ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime Versions of packages texlive-base-bin recommends: ii texlive-base-bin-doc 2007.dfsg.2-4 TeX Live: Documentation files for Versions of packages texlive-base-bin suggests: ii evince [postscript 2.22.2-4~lenny1 Document (postscript, pdf) viewer ii ghostscript [posts 8.62.dfsg.1-3.2lenny0 The GPL Ghostscript PostScript/PDF ii gv [postscript-vie 1:3.6.5-2 PostScript and PDF viewer for X ii perl-tk 1:804.028-1+b1 Perl module providing the Tk graph ii xpdf-reader [pdf-v 3.02-1.4 Portable Document Format (PDF) sui ii xpdf-utils [pdf-vi 3.02-1.4 Portable Document Format (PDF) sui Versions of packages tex-common depends on: ii debconf 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii ucf 3.0016 Update Configuration File: preserv Versions of packages texlive-base-bin is related to: pn tetex-base <none> (no description available) pn tetex-bin <none> (no description available) pn tetex-extra <none> (no description available) ii tex-common 1.11.3 common infrastructure for building -- debconf information: tex-common/check_texmf_wrong: tex-common/check_texmf_missing:
