I do not know. But I think this is one more reason why we should *not* ship copies of configuration files in TEXMFDIST, where they will happily be picked up if the conffile is removed. - It deprives the local admin of the possibility to remove a conf(ig)file - In this case, it hides a misconfiguration; format generation during configuration of texlive-base-bin (or at least tl-latex-base) should not have succeeded in the first place Regards, Frank -- Dr. Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f.
