The following should be added to DEPEND:

    virtual/latex-base
    || ( dev-texlive/texlive-texinfo app-text/tetex app-text/ptex )

Maybe it's time for a virtual/texinfo-tex for the above any-of-many dependency?

> Maybe it's time for a virtual/texinfo-tex for the above any-of-many dependency? 

or perhaps virtual/texi2dvi ?
(texi2pdf or pdftexi2dvi seem to be only aliases for texi2dvi)

> or perhaps virtual/texi2dvi ?

Also fine with me. Would you include sys-apps/texinfo as additional dependency
then?

Not sure, I would prefer having it included but it's in system...

Created an attachment (id=159333) [details]
app-text:dvipng-1.11:20080702-160135.log [hppa]

Again, the test phase reveals some things are missing or at least not where the
test suite expects to find them.

Stable for HPPA.

virtual/texi2dvi added to DEPEND.
Please go on with stabilisation.

I'm still getting test failures:

Added RESTRICT=test since the tests need some special fonts and IMHO it is not
feasible to add them as an extra dependency.

 USE=test can be used.  Which fonts?

That's the question... Feel free to find out what dependencies are needed. ;-)

Thomas, does it succeed when you have dev-texlive/texlive-fontsrecommended
installed?  Or do you still use teTeX?

Yes Christian, tests succeed with texlive-fontsrecommended installed.

Thanks for testing, added USE=test and please go on.

amd64 stable

Shouldn't that dependency be something like:
test? ( || ( dev-texlive/texlive-fontsrecommended app-text/tetex app-text/ptex
) )
The way you have it now it will cause blockers for tetex users.

 Fixed.

ppc64 stable

last arch CC'd -> mark bug as FIXED
