NAME

       dh_installtex - register Type 1 fonts, hyphenation patterns, or formats with TeX

SYNOPSIS

       dh_installtex [debhelper options] [-n] [--priority=n] [--flavor=flavor[,flavor]] [map=MixedMap,file.map] [map=Map,file.map]
       [map=KanjiMap,file.map] [mapfile=file.cfg[=n]] [hyphen=lang,file[,lhm=n][,rhm=n][,synonym=syn,...]]  [hyphenfile=file.cnf[=n]]
       [format=format,engine,hyphenfile,rest args] [formatfile=file.cnf[=n]]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_installtex is a debhelper program that is responsible for updating the ls-R databases, registering map files, new formats, and new
       hyphenation patterns with TeX.

       Your package should depend on an appropriate version of tex-common so that the update-* commands are available. (This program adds that
       dependency to ${misc:Depends}.)

       WARNING This program does not check for the actual existence of any input files in TEXMF trees. If you call it without any further
       specification on which packages to work on (using "-p" or "-N") it will add calls to management functions to all packages. In this case
       don't forget to add ${misc:Depends} to all packages' dependencies.

SIMPLE USAGE
: Registering Files
       If you only install files into /usr/share/texmf and want to be sure that mktexlsr is called in a correct way (e.g., also in the postrm
       script when there is no functional mktexlsr), simply call

	       dh_installtex

COMPLEX USAGE
: Registering fonts, hyphenation patterns and formats
       If in addition, you have to install map files, hyphenation patterns for additional languages, or format definitions you can use three
       different methods to specify what should be installed:

       1) Pre made config files: These files can be specified with the different typefile= options, together with an optional priority.  type can
       be one of map, format and hyphen, and these files will be installed into /etc/texmf/configdir/ for the respective type (updmap.d for map
       files, hyphen.d for hyphenation pattern files, and fmt.d for format files).

       Example:

	       dh_installtex mapfile=foo.cfg formatfile=debian/bar.cnf=42

       would install foo.cfg as /var/lib/tex-common/fontmap-cfg/texmf/foo.cfg, and debian/bar.cnf as /etc/texmf/fmt.d/42bar.cnf.

       2) Directly on the cmd line: You can specify maps, formats, and hyphenations on the cmd line. The items are stored in the respective config
       file 20package

       Example:

	       dh_installtex map=Map,foo.map hyphen=ngerman-x-2011-07-01,dehyphn-x-2011-07-01.tex,hyph-de-1996.pat.txt,lhm=2,rhm=2,synonym=ngerman-x-latest,exceptions=hyph-de-1996.hyp.txt

       would install a file /var/lib/tex-common/fontmap-cfg/texmf/package.cfg containing the line

	       Map foo.map

       and a file /etc/texmf/hyphen.d/20package.cnf containing the lines

	   name=ngerman-x-2011-07-01 file=dehyphn-x-2011-07-01.tex file_patterns=hyph-de-1996.pat.txt lefthyphenmin=2 righthyphenmin=2 synonym=ngerman-x-latest file_exceptions=hyph-de-1996.hyp.txt

       3) Package files: You create a file debian/package.maps or debian/maps, debian/package.hyphens or debian/hyphens, debian/package.formats or
       debian/formats. These files are installed with default priority and the name of the package. Each of these files will be installed into the
       first package dh_installtex is told to act on. By default this is the first binary package in debian/control, but if you use -p, -i, or -a
       flags, it will be the first package specified by those flags.

       Example:

	       dh_installtex

       would install a present debian/package.formats file as /etc/texmf/fmt.d/20package.cnf.

   Mixing the different variants
       The command line items (Variant 2) are merged into the debian/package.maps (debian/package.hyphens, debian/package.formats) file and the
       merged file is installed as 20package.cfg/cnf. If you specify an additional package.cfg/cnf (Variant 1) without a different priority than
       the default one on the cmd line, this will raise an error since both files would be installed as 20package.cfg/cnf. You can only specify
       package.cfg/cnf without a different priority than the default one if no debian/package.maps nor any command line Map files are present.

   The pseudo-comment
       If the provided cfg files do not contain the pseudo-comment as described in the Debian TeX Policy, Font configuration, an additional header
       with explanation, warning and the pseudo-comment is added.

       This program automatically generates the postinst and postrm commands needed to register the fonts with TeX.  See dh_installdeb(1) for an
       explanation of how this works.

OPTIONS

       -n, --noscripts
	   Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.

       --priority=n
	   Set the default priority to n instead of 20.

       --flavor=flavor[,flavor]
	   This option is used to select a different tree then the default /usr/share/texmf, and to switch on additional options. The argument
	   specify a list from flavors to be selected.	At the moment you can select from the following list of flavors: tree:texlive,
	   map:config_for_active_maps, map:config_for_all_maps, format:build_all, format:add_one:formatname, and lsr:full.

	   tree:texlive will select the tree /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist and should only be used for files installed into this tree.

	   map:config_for_active_maps will create a file config.bar for each active (i.e. uncommented) map in each of the cfg file generated by
	   one of the three methods described above. These files are installed in /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/.

	   If you select map:config_for_all_maps the script will generate config.bar even for those map files which are present in a cfg file, but
	   deactivated by a comment.

	   The file config.bar is used when called by `dvips -Pbar ...'. Thus it allows the activation of single map files even if they are not
	   automatically activated via the updmap(-sys) mechanism.

	   Default is not to generate any config files.

	   format:build_all will add code to the postinst script to create all defined formats, and to the postrm script to clean and recreate?
	   FIXME?  the generated formats.

	   format:add_one:formatname allows to add the generation of a specific format without actually providing it (in a cnf file).  This is
	   useful if a package adds hyphenation patterns to an existing formats.

	   format:no_links: Usually, for every format that is specified in a configuration file in /etc/texmf/fmt.d/, dh_installtex will create a
	   symlink /usr/bin/format that points to the corresponding engine.  For example, /usr/bin/latex would be created as a symlink to pdftex.

	   The flavor format:no_links inhibits this. If a link already exists, dh_installtex will skip this format with an informational message,
	   even if this option is not given.

	   lsr:full: Recreate the lsr database not only for the standard trees, but also the distribution tree "/usr/share/texlive/texmf" and
	   "/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist".

NOTES

       Note that this command is not idempotent. "dh_clean -k" should be called between invocations of this command, unless using the -n option.
       Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.

       Please refer to the Debian TeX policy for details about fonts configuration for TeX by Debian packages.
