NTeX Bugs in Version 2.3 ======================== NX-XFIG 2.2.1, OCT-08-1996 xfig core dumps when inlcuding picture object. (FL) NTEX 2.6, JUN-26-1996 The Debian support in pre NTeX 2.2.beta does not work with Debian 1.1 and will cause trouble with the new dpkg program. If you haven't installed NTeX, just disable the debian support in the InstallNTeX install menu. If your status file is already broken, the following script should create a working one cp /var/lib/dpkg/status /tmp/status.orig awk '{ print $0 } /Section: ntex.*/ { print "Maintainer: Frank Langbein "; print "Version: 2.1"; print "Revision: 1"; print "Description: NTeX package" }' /var/lib/dpkg/status >/tmp/status.new cp /tmp/status.new /var/lib/dpkg/status The file /var/lib/dpkg/status-old or the files status.yesterday* might still contain an old (pre NTeX) version of your status file. (reported by Mark Philips ) NS-ITRAN V2.3, APR-16-1996 YYTEXT_POINTER is not guessed correctly for all systems. If you have trouble compiling ilex.c define YYTEXT_POINTER in c-auto.h after configuring. (FL) NX-XLATEX, NX-XTEM V2.0, FEB-21-1996 XTem and XLaTeX crash for some LaTeX files during compilation without message, esp. in LaTeX2.09 compatibility mode. The files work outside the TeX shells. (Fridger Schrempp ) NX-BIBT V2.2.2, OCT-12-1996 bibview complains about syntax errors after loading some bib files, but reports "number of errors: 0" due to parser stack overflow or internal flex error.
