Note that after setting the paper size back to a4 with "dpkg-reconfigure libpaper1", i.e. # dpkg-reconfigure libpaper1 Replacing config file /etc/papersize with new version a4 tl-paper: setting paper size for pdftex to a4: /var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/tex-ini-files/pdftexconfig.tex Running mktexlsr. This may take some time... done. Building format(s) --refresh. This may take some time... done. a4 tl-paper: setting paper size for dvips to a4: /var/lib/texmf/dvips/config/config-paper.ps Running mktexlsr. This may take some time... done. a4 tl-paper: setting paper size for dvipdfmx to a4: /var/lib/texmf/dvipdfmx/dvipdfmx-paper.cfg Running mktexlsr. This may take some time... done. a4 tl-paper: setting paper size for xdvi to a4: /var/lib/texmf/xdvi/XDvi-paper Running mktexlsr. This may take some time... done. I now get: cventin:~> tl-paper status Current context paper size (from /var/lib/texmf/tex/context/user/cont-sys-paper.tex): letter Current dvipdfmx paper size (from /var/lib/texmf/dvipdfmx/dvipdfmx-paper.cfg): a4 Current dvips paper size (from /var/lib/texmf/dvips/config/config-paper.ps): a4 Current pdftex paper size (from /var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/pdftexconfig.tex): a4 Current xdvi paper size (from /var/lib/texmf/xdvi/XDvi-paper): a4 This time, it is the context paper size that has not changed back to a4. The config file has change from /etc/texmf/tex/context/user/cont-sys.rme to /var/lib/texmf/tex/context/user/cont-sys-paper.tex I don't know whether this is the same bug, but while a4 was changed to letter for context, I can't see any change for context in the "dpkg-reconfigure libpaper1" above. At least the above two files have not changed: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4655 2015-06-25 07:43:39 /etc/texmf/tex/context/user/cont-sys.rme -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4687 2020-10-13 15:57:43 /var/lib/texmf/tex/context/user/cont-sys-paper.tex (2020-10-13 15:57:43 was the change to letter). -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
