| patch2 | reconfiguration and fixes toward bullseye * Observed that, as of upstream version 0.57.20190831, the book's source has been updated to build using modern, standard tools like PDFLaTeX and Hyperref; and, consequently, that upstream has retired and deleted btool/, removing the file PDF.cc and thus obviating (as of the present upload to sid) Lucas Nussbaum's Sept. 2020 bug report (closes: #971095). Thanked Lucas for the timely, helpful report. * Reconfigured and rebuilt for upload to Debian sid. * Conformed to Standards-Version 4.5.1. * Specified the binary to be Multi-Arch: all. * Temporarily worked around new, perhaps buggy behavior by TeX Live. (In the new TeX Live, Pst-pdf seems to interact badly with Hyperref. The present workaround works for now but provokes Ps2pdf to complain of deprecated usage; so before the Derivations package can implement a permanent solution, the future manner in which TeX Live addresses the apparent bug shall have to be observed.) * In tex/Makefile, added a missing, apparently optional = sign to an invocation of latex(1) and fixed the definition of the $(ch) variable. (These changes will be sent upstream.) * Updated tex/README. (This change too will be sent upstream.) |
