RC Bugs 2012/16

Here is my activity on release critical bugs for 2012/16:

#666606 - okumura-clsfiles: FTBFS: I can't find the format file `ptex.fmt'!

Build the package locally. texlive-lang now builds a transitional dummy package ptex-bin.
#666619 - derivations: FTBFS: sed: can't read /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/base/book.cls: No such file or directory

Only prepare a patch to fix the build failure by changing the clsdir path in tex/Makefile.
#666663 - pymecavideo: FTBFS: /bin/sh: 4: inkscape: not found

Triage the bug. librsvg (2.36.0-2) reverts upstream commit which dropped the "rsvg" script until all reverse dependencies are fixed. This is tracked in #666481 for pymecavideo.
#666631 - libsystem-command-perl: FTBFS: tests failed

Prepare new upstream version updating the t/20-zombie.t test.

Here is my activity on release critical bugs for 2012/15:

#665226 - libgnupg-perl: FTBFS: test failed

GnuPG 1.4.12 adds a new status message DECRYPTION_INFO which leads to FTBFS for libgnupg-perl when using gnupg 1.4.12. Prepared a patch to check for this additional status message.
