Uups, I must have missed this report when I came back from vacation on Monday, sorry. Both of you, please send us the output of the commands ls /etc/texmf/fmt.d/40xmltex.cnf* cat /etc/texmf/fmt.d/40xmltex.cnf grep xmltex /var/lib/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf I guess the reason is that you refused to accept a changed version of 40xmltex.cnf, and the old version does no longer work with current teTeX. If this is true, it's not in fact a bug. If it is not true (or if you think you never modified 40xmltex.cnf, so xmltex had no reason to ask), we should reassign it to xmltex (and probably raise its severity).
