Debian-specific information about TeX packages
Chapter 5 - Problems, bug reports

If the installation failed, please check the following points:

• Is there enough room on your hard disk?

• Is there any privately-compiled TeX system besides the Debian packages?

• Does the command:

       kpsewhich --format=cnf texmf
  

  return /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf?

• Is texmf.cnf modified a lot? Please check /etc/texmf/web2c/texmf.d/.

• Did you set any TeX-related environment variable?

• Try again. This might work in some cases.

• Is your language.dat correct?

How to report a bug:

• Please calm down anyway. ;)

• Please check the Debian Bug Tracking System first.

• Please read carefully the error messages, if any. It will help both you and us.

• Please use reportbug and include all information it gathers

• Please attach a simple and short sample file which causes the problem you want to report.

• Be prepared that we will have to ask more questions: You should have time to exchange a couple of e-mails with us

• It will be helpful to show us the output of the command:

       ls /etc/texmf/texmf.d/*
