Can yo please: It is rather odd: seems to be full of ghostscript entries from an old local ghostscript installation. ls-R-TEXLIVE looks much more reasonable...

I had tried texhash and so on before reporting the bug so maybe it seems likely that that local ghostscript is somehow messing that up as well. > - run (as root) > mktexlsr > and send me the output Here is the mktexlsr (texhash) run:- --------------------------------------------------------- f# mktexlsr warning: kpathsea: /var/lib/texmf/ls-R: No usable entries in ls-R. warning: kpathsea: See the manual for how to generate ls-R. warning: kpathsea: /usr/share/texmf/ls-R: No usable entries in ls-R. warning: kpathsea: See the manual for how to generate ls-R. warning: kpathsea: /usr/share/texlive/texmf/ls-R: No usable entries in ls-R. warning: kpathsea: See the manual for how to generate ls-R. warning: kpathsea: /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/ls-R: No usable entries in ls-R. warning: kpathsea: See the manual for how to generate ls-R. mktexlsr: Updating /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R... mktexlsr: /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVEMAIN: no magic string, skipping... mktexlsr: /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVEDIST: no magic string, skipping... mktexlsr: /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXMFMAIN: no magic string, skipping... mktexlsr: /var/lib/texmf/ls-R: no magic string, skipping... mktexlsr: Done. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ /var/lib/texmf/ls-R is still the same after the run above. > - retry ... > > It seems that either you have HD problems, or someting else > is severly broken. I will look at that local ghostscript installation: it was needed a long time ago to support a Brother printer which the Debian packages did not cover back then. CUPS has changed that. I had forgotten about it. Not sure that this is really the answer, but at least it gives me something to try. ael
