Hi! I am not managing to get tetex installed. The step `texconfig init' fails. Below I have copied the quick installation help in /usr/doc/Cygwin/tetex-beta20001218.README and the results I have got # Quick Installation: # # Here is an overview of a typical installation: # # 1] install the binaries with the cygwin setup as usual; OK # 2] install TDS at /usr/share/texmf (see above): # cd /usr/share # mkdir -p texmf # tar -zxf teTeX-src-1.0.tar.gz This seems strange to me. Isn't it the teTex-texmf tarfile that I have to untar in texmf directory? Do I have to install the whole tetex distribution, enter the teTeX-1.0 and run configure? (I also tried this but configure fails.) # 3] check the configuration files in /usr/share/texmf/web2c # texmf.cnf, fmtutil.cnf and mktex.cnf # please note that the distributed configuration files are # (with extension) frozen to avoid overwriting. Do I have to rename these .frozen files later. I tried both possibiblities but the problem persists. # 4] configure TeX: # texconfig confall # texconfig rehash (or mktexlsr) # texconfig init First two commands run without error. The third produces the error Running mf to create plain base ... ! mf.pool doesn't match; tangle me again (or fix the path). and similar errors for several .pool files appearing in /usr/share/texmf/web2c # and to configure what you need: # texconfig # # See /usr/doc/tetex-XXX/QuickInstall for more informations. As I said I also tried this but configure does not find lex... For the moment when I run latex I get I can't find the format file `latex.fmt'! Thanks a lot in advance for any suggestion!
