How did you come to this conclusion? I am asking because I was able to reproduce your output for kpsewhich -debug 127 texmf.cnf 2>&1 | tee debug.lg after 'wracking' my ls-R file for /usr/share/texmf by removing the entry for 'texmf.cnf' from it. An additional hint that your ls-R file is still broken is this: kdebug:/usr/share/texmf/ls-R: 390 entries in 1 directories (0 hidden). I am not expecting 9213 entries in 497 directories as I have on my machine, but even a *minimal* TeX installation should contain more than 1 directory below /usr/share/texmf/ (though less than 390 files). So again, what's the content of /usr/share/texmf/ls-R? What's the output of ls -l /var/lib/texmf ? cheerio ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
