Bug#1122465: python-escript: FTBFS: dh_install: error: missing files, aborting

[Santiago Vila]

Hi. Part of the problem here is that current texlive does not accept old LaTeX syntax.

The current documents need one or more fixes like this one:

--- a/doc/user/speckley.tex
+++ b/doc/user/speckley.tex
@@ -40,7 +40,7 @@
 \begin{array}{cl} &
 \displaystyle{
 \int_{\Omega}
-D \cdot vu \; d\Omega } + \int_{\Gamma} d \cdot vu \; d{\Gamma}
+D \cdot vu \; d\Omega + \int_{\Gamma} d \cdot vu \; d{\Gamma} }
 
 = \displaystyle{\int_{\Omega}  X_{j} \cdot v_{,j}+ Y \cdot v \; d\Omega }
 + \displaystyle{\int_{\Gamma} y \cdot v \; d{\Gamma}}


[ But my LaTeX is rusty, and I don't know how to fix the remaining errors, sorry ].

After fixing the LaTeX errors, it would be possible to drop the "true"
in debian/rules (see #1089841), but then there are still compiling
errors to fix.

Unfortunately, upstream project has not released a new version since 2022.

Thanks.
