Bug#399842: libkpathsea4: segmentation fault on upgrade of tetex

[Émile CARRY <emile.carry@univ-fcomte.fr>]

Package: libkpathsea4
Version: 3.0-23
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

On upgrade of sid, I obtain :

Creating config file /etc/texmf/fmt.d/01tetex.cnf with new version
Running fmtutil-sys. This may take some time... /usr/bin/fmtutil: line
358: 22661 Erreur de segmentation  ${1+"$@"}

[...]

This segfault break upgrade for tetex-extra.
When I remove (and purge) package libkpathsea4 the problem disappear but
all tetex package depend of package libkpathsea4.
Thus it's break my tetex toolchain.
