found 637394 2.0.0.0-3
severity 637394 serious
thanks
Raising to serious since I suspect a missing dependency on xml-core
(a fix of this bug would imply a dependency on xml-core, since
update-xmlcatalog is necessary).

I'm not sure about the primary cause of the bug (see below), but
a diff shows that the following lines have been removed from the
postinst script.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Automatically added by dh_installcatalogs
if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then
update-xmlcatalog --add --type public --id "-//W3C//DTD MathML" --package w3-dtd-mathml --local /usr/share/xml/schema/w3c/mathml/dtd/catalog.xml
update-xmlcatalog --add --type public --id "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML" --package w3-dtd-mathml --local /usr/share/xml/schema/w3c/mathml/dtd/catalog.xml
update-xmlcatalog --add --type system --id "http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML2/dtd/" --package w3-dtd-mathml --local /usr/share/xml/schema/w3c/mathml/dtd/catalog.xml
update-xmlcatalog --add --type public --id "-//W3C//DTD MathML" --package w3-dtd-mathml --root
update-xmlcatalog --add --type public --id "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML" --package w3-dtd-mathml --root
update-xmlcatalog --add --type system --id "http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML2/dtd/" --package w3-dtd-mathml --root

# End automatically added section
exit 0

dh_installcatalogs lines have also been removed from the postrm and
prerm scripts. And /usr/share/xml/schema/w3c/mathml/dtd/catalog.xml
has been removed too.
I can see that 2.0.0.0-1 was depending on xml-core, but this is
no longer the case. Nothing about that in the ChangeLog, so this
is probably unintentional.
Note that w3c-dtd-xhtml doesn't have this problem and depends on
xml-core.
