João uses debian-unstable apparently. I have access to such a machine... $ latex --version TeX (Web2C 7.4.5) 3.14159 kpathsea version 3.4.5 Copyright (C) 1997-2003 D.E. Knuth. [snip copyright details...] ... and confirm that this version of latex has no problems with the --src-specials option. Here I use RH 8: $ latex --version TeX (Web2C 7.3.1) 3.14159 kpathsea version 3.3.1 Copyright (C) 1999 D.E. Knuth. [snip copyright details...] ... which chokes on --src-specials -- Angus
