I think we had a very long list of TeX-related environment variables that were all unset in th packages of teTeX-2.0.2. And it seems to me as if it would be good to do this again. People might still have problems running latex or whatever, but at least the package installs cleanly. What do the others think? Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ.
