[Bug 1450610] [NEW] package texlive-base (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

 

Public bug reported:

The postinstallation script failed trying to run fmtutil.  A log file
left in /tmp recorded the problem as follows:

fmtutil: unknown option --no-error-if-no-engine=luajittex

This is for Ubuntu 15.04 aka vivid.  A similar (maybe the same?) error
affected Ubuntu 14.10 aka utopic.  The problem may well be in the
original texlive files, not in the packaging files.
