From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.10) Gecko/20071128 Fedora/2.0.0.10-2.fc8 Firefox/2.0.0.10 Description of problem: texconfig, if started by root, creates updated files not in the system area (e.g. /usr/share/texmf or /var/lib/texmf) but in the root home directory /root/.texlive2007/texmf.../. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): texlive-2007-0.18.fc9 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start texconfig as root 2. chose from the menu anything that, if changed, should be in the system config/format files (e.g. default paper size, or default printer for dvips) 3. exit texconfig 4. check new files/subdirectories in /root/.texlive2007/ Actual Results: System wide config files/formats are not updated Expected Results: System wide config files/formats should be updated Additional info: As an unrelated subject, are there any chances to have CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean typesetting) in fedora? CJK is a part of texlive (see http://authors.aps.org/names.html and http://cjk.ffii.org/). Also, after installing texlive, the following packages with the names containing tetex are left on the system. tetex-prosper-1.5-3.fc6 tetex-IEEEtran-1.7.1-1.fc8 tetex-doc-3.0-44.3.fc8 tetex-elsevier-0.1.20060516-3.fc6 tetex-preview-11.84-3.fc8 tetex-dvipost-1.1-8.fc8 tetex-font-cm-lgc-0.5-8.fc6 tetex-fonts-hebrew-0.1-7.fc6 tetex-unicode-0-7.20041017.fc6 Some of them are tetex-unrelated packages (e.g. prosper has been already reported), those probably need new names. Others, like tetex-doc, better be uninstalled upon upgrading to texlive.
Please use texconfig-sys to set system-wide parameters.
Thank you.
