instead of searching for texmf.cnf in /usr/share/texmf/web2c in looks in /usr/lib/texmf/web2c the problem seems to be with TEXMFMAIN not get properly set ------- Additional Comments From 03/23/99 19:43 ------- this seems to correct it: --- tetex.spec~ Wed Mar 24 01:27:57 1999 +++ tetex.spec Wed Mar 24 01:48:01 1999 @@ -180,7 +180,8 @@ patch -p3 -d $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share < %{PATCH2} mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/var/lib/texmf make install prefix=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr \ - texmf=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share/texmf + texmf=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share/texmf \ + texmfmain=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share/texmf #perl -pi \ # -e "s|\.\./share/texmf|/usr/share/texmf|g;" \ # -e "s|$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/var/lib/texmf|/var/lib/texmf|g;" \ ------- Additional Comments From 03/24/99 19:18 ------- this seems to correct it: --- tetex.spec~ Wed Mar 24 01:27:57 1999 +++ tetex.spec Wed Mar 24 01:48:01 1999 @@ -180,7 +180,8 @@ patch -p3 -d $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share < %{PATCH2} mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/var/lib/texmf make install prefix=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr \ - texmf=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share/texmf + texmf=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share/texmf \ + texmfmain=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share/texmf #perl -pi \ # -e "s|\.\./share/texmf|/usr/share/texmf|g;" \ # -e "s|$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/var/lib/texmf|/var/lib/texmf|g;" \
I included your change in tetex-1.0.1-2. It *almost* worked, but left me with texmf.cnf line TEXMFMAIN = $SELFAUTOPARENT/share/texmf that I needed to change to TEXMFMAIN = $SELFAUTODIR/share/texmf (There were some other backward compatibility texmf.cnf problems issues also so the package carries its own copy rather than installing the generated file).
