Thanks. I copied by hand texmf.cnf -> texmf.cnf.dpkg-old texmf.cnf.dpkg-new -> texmf.cnf in that order and then ran the configure option from dselect's main menu. Here is an excerpt from dselect's output. : running dpkg --pending --configure ... : Setting up tetex-base (0.9-6) ... : config_replace: file './texmf.cnf' not found. : texhash: Updating /usr/lib/texmf/local/ls-R... : texhash: Updating /var/lib/texmf/ls-R... : texhash: Done. : Running initex. This may take some time. ... : Output of initex is in /tmp/tex02208aaa "file './texmf.cnf' not found" appears here and at least at one other place in the output. In any event, one should not have to copy files by hand during installation. Has anybody reported this as a bug? -- Thomas E.
