I suspect strongly that many packages are doing full 'texconfig init'
runs rather than running texconfig only for their relevant packages.
An example in this case is jadetex. It runs (it's own copy of)
'texconfig init' rather than just generating .fmt's for what it is

What is the *right* way to sync to slink (or any other distribution)?
I looked into dftp and found that it seems more like a method for

problem. For example

Some time ago, xterm's terminal emulation changed, and the "xterm"

associated with the old version of xterm, I changed its terminal type to
"xterm-old". Of course, this means that, when logging in to other kinds
