Description of problem: Xen packages which BuildRequires: tetex-latex, fail in mock http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=390305 Build the latex command is aborting mock-chroot> cd builddir/build/BUILD/xen-3.2.0/ mock-chroot> cd docs/ mock-chroot> latex src/user.tex This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6) %&-line parsing enabled. kpathsea: Running mktexfmt latex.fmt I can't find the format file `latex.fmt'! This is critical because it makes it impossible to do new builds & thus is blocking all Xen userspace development in rawhide. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): # rpm -qa | grep texlive | sort texlive-2007-16.fc9.x86_64 texlive-dvips-2007-16.fc9.x86_64 texlive-latex-2007-16.fc9.x86_64 texlive-texmf-2007-10.fc9.noarch texlive-texmf-dvips-2007-10.fc9.noarch texlive-texmf-errata-2007-1.fc9.noarch texlive-texmf-errata-dvips-2007-1.fc9.noarch texlive-texmf-errata-fonts-2007-1.fc9.noarch texlive-texmf-errata-latex-2007-1.fc9.noarch texlive-texmf-fonts-2007-10.fc9.noarch texlive-texmf-latex-2007-10.fc9.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. cvs co xen 2. cd xen/devel 3. make srpm 4. mock rebuild -r fedora-devel-x86_64 `pwd`/xen-3.2.0-4.fc9.src.rpm Actual results: Fails because latex fails Expected results: Build succeeeds Additional info: This only started happening since switch to texlive
If I manually run this: /usr/bin/texconfig-sys rehash within the build root, then I can complete the Xen build. This ought to be run by the %postinstall script of texlive, but something must be breaking it.
Further to my original comment, the problem actually seems to have happened more recently - post the texlive introduction. I managed to do a successful build on Jan 21st, with texlive-2007-13.fc9 and texlive-texmf-8.fc9
