What about just ". setuptex"?

I suspect these come from mktexlsr. I have: $ rpm -q sed sed-4.1.4-1 $ sed --version GNU sed version 4.1.4 $ which sed /bin/sed Try runing "mktexlsr" from the command line. > mktexlsr: /usr/local/tex/texmf/ls-R lacks magic string.

You should get: $ kpsewhich cont-en /usr/local/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/base/cont-en.tex Check for bug reports against your sed. You could hack at mktexlsr to replace the sed lines with constants and see if you get further. -- George N.
