This is still biting me on Lucid, with texlive 2009-7, based on a long recursive dump of these stat calls from strace:
stat("$HOME/.texmf-config/web2c/pdftex", 0xdeadbeef) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) Once I fixed the home directory entry in LDAP to not have a trailing /, it was fine, but that indicates that the upstream bug wasn't fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192877 Title: pdftex for some reason scans the whole home directory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-bin/+bug/192877/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
