Description John Connors 2007-03-31 19:36:56 UTC

texi2dpdf is not installed when the ~x86 version of textex is emerged

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge sys-apps/texinfo-4.8.5
2.emerge  sys-text/tetex-3.0_p1-r3


Actual Results:  
No texi2pdf is installed anywhere upon the system.

Expected Results:  
Installation of texi2pdf via the tetex ebuild!

In the changelog for texinfo it is stated that texi2pdf is no longer installed with the package because tetex installs it instead. This doesn't seem to be the case.

Comment 1 John Connors 2007-03-31 20:06:30 UTC

Researching this a bit more, I see that texinfo removes texi2pdf from the texinfo tree prior to install if and only if textex is installed. So if texinfo is installed first, and then textex things are ok. But if textex is installed first and then texinfo, you end up with no texi2pdf

Uhm... Run `app-portage/genlop; genlop -s sys-apps/texinfo sys-text/tetex` and post the output here.
