Ok, I do it like this:
build_format_if_format_exists ()
{
v=`kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFSYSVAR` || return 0
c=`kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFSYSCONFIG` || return 0
TEXMFVAR="$v"
TEXMFCONFIG="$c"
export TEXMFVAR TEXMFCONFIG
if kpsewhich --format='web2c files' fmtutil.cnf > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then
fmtcnffile=`kpsewhich --format='web2c files' fmtutil.cnf`
else
return 0
fi
...
What do you think? (No, I don't want tex-common or something else to
depend on, some people only want to run makeinfo without any tex stuff)
Best wishes
Norbert

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong
and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a
thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually
turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.
