Hi All, I am eager to give Lilypond-2.6.0 a try!
However, on my Gentoo box, I get the following error during the compile: mf-nowin -progname=mf "\mode:=laserjet; nonstopmode; input feta11.mf;" This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.4) kpathsea: Running mktexfmt mf.base tcfmgr: config file `tcfmgr.map' (usually in $TEXMFMAIN/texconfig) not found. fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found. I can't find the base file `mf.base'! make[1]: *** [out/feta11.tfm] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/portage/lilypond-2.6.0/work/lilypond-2.6.0/mf'make: *** [all] Error 2 I did a bit of searching around, and it seems that there are a few other gentoo users with a similar error (albeit on an earlier version of lilypond - 2.5.2: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90334 ). It seems to be related to tetex, but I do have the latest gentoo version installed (3.0-r2). However, I also see that I can do a: make -C mf get-pfa that appears to download and extract pretraced fonts from an rpm package. Cool. But, after the above make (apparently successfully), I follow it up with a 'make all' and still run into the same error as above. So, could anyone shed some light on the original error; or perhaps explain how the 'get-pfa' option should be used. Thanks very much for you help, and for a great program!
