Hi Hanspeter,

sorry for not responding to your previous email on dblatex :-(.

I have no plans to port dblatex to 10.7, because in order to do that, I would have to install tetex-base (or perhaps the texlive-base package, which didn't exist back when I packaged dblates). But I have no desire to install either a TeX system from the stone age (tetex), or an outdated texlive 2011 in parallel to my MacTeX 2012 installation.

But feel free to take over the package (and perhaps update it to the latest version) if you like.


Cheers,
Max

Thanks for your quick answer, Max!

Sounds good. I've tried to do just that, and the latest version will build with a small patch. Unless Hanspeter wants to own it (and he'd be more than welcome to it, a package dragging in both TeX and docbook is not my idea of fun), I'll declare myself the maintainer and remove your package theft deterrent language :-)

Thanks for the update.  I know nothing about dblatex except that the new 
lilypond needed it to build, so I won't be able to take over 
maintainership.  However, I've now added it to the 10.7 tree by passing 
it on to None and updating the python and tetex/texlive dependencies. 
I'll leave it to others to upgrade if needed.

Thanks a lot for your efforts, I'll look at them and update ASAP.

Where does the dblatex dependency enter the picture? I don't recall having come across that package name before.
