tetex-extra installs it in the proper place, texlive-pstricks (at least in TL 2005 puts them in /usr/share/doc/. >> Frank and teTeX guys here, can you explain all this? I am stymed.

This is what I did, using data and LaTeX file from http://people.debian.org/~frank/pst-geo-map.tar.gz (still uploading): - log into a clean pbuilder chroot (only build-essential packages installed - apt-get install texlive-pstricks texlive-latex-base - mkdir -p /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/generic/pst-geo/ - cp /usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/generic/pst-geo/pst-map2dII.* /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/generic/pst-geo/ - gunzip /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/generic/pst-geo/pst-map2dII.tex.gz - mktexlsr /usr/local/share/texmf/ - copy the tarball into the chroot - tar -xzf pst-geo-map.tar.gz - cd pst-geo-map - latex mapplot.tex [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/pst-geo-map# dvips mapplot.dvi This is dvips(k) 5.95b Copyright 2005 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com) ' TeX output 2007.02.28:1212' -> mapplot.ps <tex.pro><pstricks.pro><pst-dots.pro><pst-node.pro><texps.pro><special.pro> <color.pro>. <cmr12.pfb>[1] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/pst-geo-map# - apt-get install gs-gpl # time ps2pdf mapplot.ps real 0m30.760s user 0m28.550s sys 0m0.236s I can view the PDF and PS files fine from outside the chroot, so everything is included. If I create the DVI on my normal system, even viewing it in xdvi works fine (although it's damn slow). Next, I try the same in a teTeX based system: - log into a sid chroot - apt-get install tetex-extra gs-gpl texlive-pstricks - repeat the file moving, mktexlsr, latex, dvips, ps2pdf: Same result (except that it takes 32 seconds...)
