Hi Hideki,
what are you trying to do? Why do you not try to understand what I wrote
several times?
Yes, we know that we create /u/l/s/texmf, this is allowed by policy.
The question is *WHY* an ls-R file is created there, because none
of *our* scripts (AFAIS) creates it, all call mktexlsr with
a list of arguments, so do every package using dh_installtex and
triggers.
> Oops, there's texmf!
Yes we know.

This is what I wrote you in my last email, I read (the hundreds time)
through the post* scripts and I know what is there.
The question is *why* a ls-R file is created there.

??? Can you please give indication and source of where mktexlsr
is called without a list of directory trees? Or do you state it
just for fun?

THis patch would reopen 475077.
This is getting boring.
I don't want to be unfriendly, but your findings have been explained
by me already, and instead of providing useful information you provide
less useful patches.
I will not support this NMU, if you plan to go ahead with it.
Best wishes
Norbert
