I've installed the tetex-package via setup.exe, and downloaded TDS from ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/systems/unix/teTeX/1.0/distrib/sources/teTeX-texmf-1.0.2.tar.gz and unpacked it into /usr/share/texmf. So, following the instructions in /usr/doc/Cygwin/tetex-beta-20001218.README I did: $ texconfig confall Error: file texmf.cnf not found in ``//share/texmf/web2c''. TEXMFMAIN ``//share/texmf'' seems to have the wrong value from a texmf.cnf file. $ Hm. texmf.cnf contains several references to $SELFAUTOPARENT, but I can't figure out how to set that correctly. By using the *.cnf.frozen files instead of the *.cnf ones, I managed to get as far as running "texconfig confall; texconfig rehash; texconfig init": --- [ cut ] --- $ texconfig confall ==================== binaries found by searching $PATH =================== tex: /usr/bin/tex etex: /usr/bin/etex pdftex: /usr/bin/pdftex omega: /usr/bin/omega mf: /usr/bin/mf mpost: /usr/bin/mpost tcdialog: /usr/bin/tcdialog dvips: /usr/bin/dvips xdvi not found. kpsewhich: /usr/bin/kpsewhich mktexpk: /usr/bin/mktexpk mktextfm: /usr/bin/mktextfm =========================== Kpathsea variables =========================== TEXMF=/usr/share/texmf =============== environment variables (ok if no output here) ============= ============================= search paths =============================== MetaPost support: .:/usr/share/texmf/metapost/support PostScript header: .:/usr/share/texmf/dvips//:/usr/share/texmf/pdftex//:/usr/share/texmf/tex//:/usr/share/texmf/ fonts/type1// TeX system documentation: .:/usr/share/texmf/doc// TeX system sources: .:/usr/share/texmf/source// Troff fonts: /usr/lib/font/devpost afm: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/afm// base: .:/usr/share/texmf/web2c bib: .:/usr/share/texmf/bibtex/bib//:/usr/share/texmf/bibtex/// bitmap font: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts bst: .:/usr/share/texmf/bibtex/bst//:/usr/share/texmf/bibtex/// cnf: /usr/local/share:/usr/share:/usr/local/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf:/usr/local/share/texmf/we b2c:/usr/share/texmf/web2c::/usr/share/texmf/web2c:/usr/share/texmf/web2c dvips config: .:/usr/share/texmf/dvips// fmt: .:/usr/share/texmf/web2c gf: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/gf//// graphic/figure: .:/usr/share/texmf/tex/generic//:/usr/share/texmf/tex/// ist: .:/usr/share/texmf/makeindex// ls-R: /usr/share/texmf:/var/tmp/texfonts map: .:/usr/share/texmf/fontname mem: .:/usr/share/texmf/web2c mf: .:/usr/share/texmf/metafont//:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/source//:/var/tmp/texfonts/source// mfpool: .:/usr/share/texmf/web2c mft: .:/usr/share/texmf/mft// mp: .:/usr/share/texmf/metapost// mppool: .:/usr/share/texmf/web2c ocp: .:/usr/share/texmf/omega/ocp// ofm: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/ofm//:/var/tmp/texfonts/ofm//:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/tfm//:/var/tmp/ texfonts/tfm//:.:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/tfm//:/var/tmp/texfonts/tfm// opl: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/opl//:/var/tmp/texfonts/opl// other text files: .:/usr/share/texmf/kpsewhich// otp: .:/usr/share/texmf/omega/otp// ovf: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/ovf//:/var/tmp/texfonts/ovf// ovp: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/ovp//:/var/tmp/texfonts/ovp// pk: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/pk////:/var/tmp/texfonts/pk////:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/pk/modeless// :/var/tmp/texfonts/pk/modeless// tex: .:/usr/share/texmf/tex/generic//:/usr/share/texmf/tex/// texpool: .:/usr/share/texmf/web2c tfm: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/tfm//:/var/tmp/texfonts/tfm// truetype fonts: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/truetype// type1 fonts: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1// type42 fonts: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type42// vf: .:/usr/share/texmf/fonts/vf// web2c files: /usr/share/texmf/web2c $ texconfig rehash mktexlsr: Done. $ texconfig init Running mf to create plain base ... ! mf.pool doesn't match; tangle me again (or fix the path).
