No, that's a bug in the package, I think. > Then, following the install instructions for systems where RPM and DEB won't work, > I did the follwing: > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] lilypond]# rpm2cpio ec-fonts-mftraced-1.0.2-1.noarch.rpm | cpio > -uid > Any thoughts on how to fix it? I think you'll see that the fonts are in a whole new direcory ./usr/share/texmf/... from where you ran rpm2cpio You'd better do something like rpm --install --force ec-fonts... Or, you'd need to cd to / before doing the rpm2cpio trick.
