Something bad happened while installing packages.

This may take some time. ... > Error: tex -ini -jobname=jadetex -progname=jadetex &latex jadetex.ini' failed See #298437. As a workaround, change /etc/texmf/fmt.d/40jadetex.cnf so that it reads: # jadefmtutil.cnf: configuration file for fmtutil; jade flavor. # invoke with 'fmtutil --cnffile <file>' # # format engine pattern-file arguments jadetex pdfetex language.dat &latex jadetex.ini pdfjadetex pdfetex language.dat &pdflatex pdfjadetex.ini This is not the same as suggested in the patch to #298437. In order to make the version from the patch sufficient, you additionally need to do # ln -s pdfetex /usr/bin/etex which I will do in the next upload of tetex-bin.
