Package: texlive-base-bin
Version: 2007-11
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software
I recently tried upgrading (I track sid).
Upon upgrading texlive-base-bin, the system ate all swap and eventually
crashed.
I subsequently attempted to remove texlive packages with dpkg
--force-depends --purge, and reinstall with apt-get -f install.
However, the same behavior reoccured.
It happens at this point:
Setting up texlive-base-bin (2007-11) ...
Running mktexlsr. This may take some time... done.
Building format(s) --all . This may take some time...
Looking at ps, there are tons of processes like this:

-- Package-specific info:
If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries
(latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong
output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the
error in your report. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of
other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps
to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures!
If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of
output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem),
you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that
can be found at
http://www.latex-einfuehrung.de/mini-en.html (english)
or

Description:
tex-common - Common infrastructure for using and building TeX in Debian
Closes: 409897 418983 426881 427562
Changes:
tex-common (1.8) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Bump urgency since this fixes a RC bug which hits anyone upgrading
from lenny to sid and triggers a forkbomb. Urgency only medium
because of the long list of unrelated other changes. [fk]
* Add a workaround for the fork bomb problem in format generation:
Ignore jadetex and xmltex if latex is not present (closes: #427562) [fk]
* make proper ucfr checking in maintainer scripts (Closes: #409897) [np]
* rework the code generated by dh_installtex in the postinst script.
Now at postinst/configure time fmtutil-sys is called with
--all --cnffile <file>
where <file> are the fmt.d config files installed by the package. This
way a dpkg-reconfigure will create *all* formats defined in the config
file, even if the sysadm has defined additional formats.
(Closes: #418983) [np]
* Update snippets in texmf.d according to a reordering patch accepted
upstream [fk]
* (first) rework of Debian-on-TeX document for TeX Live only [np]
* add a list of old files from teTeX which can be removed
* Do not install unused 01tetex.cnf and its md5sum file [fk]
* dh_installtex: rewrite $engine to metafont if $engine = mf|mf-nowin
* Install a copy of mktex.cnf in /usr/share/tex-common, and advice in
NEWS.Debian to reinstall it. [fk]
* Debconf translations: Added Vietnamese translation, thanks to Clytie
Siddall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (closes: #426881)
* implement an opion --nosourcefiles for tpm2licenses to not check
source files
* Add symlinks "README.Debian.$ext" to the respective "TeX-on-Debian"
formats. [fk]
