aha. > I've attached the debug log to this message. Thanks, that improves my understanding. There seem to be two problems. The first and most important is that you don't have any information about xetex in your fmtutil.cnf. What's the output of kpsewhich --format='web2c files' fmtutil.cnf both as root and as "uws"? The second problem is that fmtutil --byfmt=whatever exits without an error if there is not information about that format in the configuration file. That's a feature, at least in some circumstances, but here we get a problem. It's a feature when generating all formats, but with byfmt? I'd say it's a bug.
