Well, I really don't like to get on your nerves but I'm not so
familiar with programming (just a user :...)
Does the first solution mean I have to change the line
LString tmp = "makeindex -c -q "; ---> line 452, LaTeX.C
to
LString tmp = "makeindex -c -q -s [name of my style file in
/usr/share/texmf/makeindex/]";
and everythink works fine?
(I'm a little bit nervous when changing source codes :-)
Thank you very much,
