This is quite unfortunate. Update tests teTeX -> TeX Live belong to the usual testing procedure that Norbert (main TeX Live maintainer) is doing. So it would be interesting which special situation occurred on your system. > Another thing that can be useful is that the version of tetex I had > was from the stable distro (i.e. 2.0.2c-8). This, however, is very interesting and might well be the special situation mentioned above. Do I understand you correctly that you were running a testing system with teTeX from stable and then tried to update that to TeX Live from unstable? If so, then this update path is currently not supported. Whether or not it will be supported for Sarge->Etch once Etch gets released hasn't been decided yet. >> > I think that this happened because of some configuration files left >> > from the tetex installation in /etc/texmf/fmt.d >> >> Possible.

Are the other files from texlive-base, too? cheerio ralf
