That's not quite right: if you run the stable gentoo branch, you get  
version 2.0.2-r8. The version you mention is in unstable. I have  
played with several linux distros and think that the tetex setup for  
gentoo is unnecessarily complicated. But it's good to see that gentoo  
is now including an experimental texlive package: http:// 
packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=texlive Given the demise of  
tetex, this may be an important step.

Yes, you're right; however in gentoo you don't really run a branch, you
manage versions on a package basis rather than a system-wide basis.

Thanks, that was a very interesting read! Personally, if it weren't  
for the really bad tex installation, I would favor gentoo over most  
other linux distros I have tried (the new SUSE 10.1 is a disaster,  
IMHO), so this sounds really exciting. I sure hope they'll figure out  
a way to compile binaries for ppc, which is not one of the default  
architectures for TeXLive.

well, on linux, more as a replacement for tetex since it has most of 
tetex, is maintained, is supposed to be cross platform etc

and one can always unzip the latest context zip in the local tree

Many packages need TeX for their documentation.  For that you want a
compact, stable, very robust TeX package with support for many
languages.  Red Hat uses teTeX (with
Japanese support, e.g., ptex added).   Distros will want all the
libraries dynamically linked to save space and so that security
updates to thinks like libpng and libtiff don't require new TeX
binaries.  Distros will want to use the Type1 fonts from the system
for space and because they have added glyphs for more languages.

Well, just to clarify my somewhat sweeping remark: the troubles I had  
with TeX on SUSE 10.1 were relatively trivial (there was this old  
cont-usr.tex  that prevented format generation), and in many  
respects, I like it quite a lot. It's just that for a long time,  
every single beta had difficulties with online updates and online  
installation sources, and this has not been solved for the final  
release, it has even become somewhat worse. There's quite a lot of  
whining on the mailing lists and in the forums, and even some of the  
developers call this is an intermediate release, which, I guess, is  
marketing speech for banana ware...

Good night!

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts problem

2006-05-31 Thread Renaud AUBIN

Hi Jean,

Your example works here...
I'm not a font guru but it is maybe more interesting for you to use
type1 fonts. Depending on which linux distro you use, you have to tell
tetex to use type1. On my debian testing box, I have uncommented Map
lm.map in /etc/texmf/updmap.d/10tetex-base.cfg and sudo update-updmap
(as I remember...).

I'm not sure this will solve your problem but you can try anyway since
IMHO, it's better to have type1 fonts instead of bitmap...

Moreover, if you want correct language settings for french, you should
better write:

\setupoutput[pdf]
\useencoding[ffr]
\mainlanguage[fr]

\starttext

Cordialement ;)

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts problem

2006-05-31 Thread Renaud AUBIN
Can you upload the pdf on a website (instead of the ML)?

IMHO, problems with accentuated chars can come from the use of
heterogeneous encodings (emacs unicode + context ec for example as I
experienced). Check the encoding of your input file with file
test.tex, if you get something like ISO-8859 text and you use ec or
texnansi in cont-sys.tex, the problem is not encoding-related.
...

It can help if you send the output messages of texexec...

There is apparently a big problem in your installation but you already
known that... I have not used
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TeTeX_3.0_installation since I use debian
(apt-get rules). Consequently, we are on the bounds of my knowledge on
this problem...
I assume you need LaTeX (like me :( ), if this is wrong, you'd better
use the standalone ConTeXt for linux.
If you are on debian, I know that
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Debian_installation works very well (+some
tricks with updmap to use t1 fonts)...

Reinstallation is the worst case, so maybe a ConTeXt guru can help...

Also missing, from /original-ams-base.map):  `lcircle10' `lcirclew10'

Also missing, from `cmbsy6' `cmbsy8' `cmbsy9' `cmex7' `cmex8' `cmex9'
`cmmib6' `cmmib8' `cmmib9'

So, what could/should I do? (you have noticed I understand nothing to
fonts, haven't you?)
tia,

I had the same trouble. As Hans said:

your texmf.cnf file should contain:

TEXFONTMAPS =
.;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{$progname,pdftex,dvips,}//;$TEXMF/{$progname,pdftex,dvips}/{config,}//

Maybe something should be written on wiki about these dvipdfm font  
troubles that cover many threads now.

Yes, that was it, thanks a lot!!
You're quite right about putting this in the howto, it should be done, and
maybe also add something about the files texexec.ini and cont-sys.tex.

Renaud: I looked at the page about a debian install, it should be easy to
adapt this to other distros, like gentoo for instance which has up to date
tetex versions.  

Thx to all

I don't know well gentoo but I believe that this distro is based on
debian stable = tetex 2

Hmm, no: gentoo is distro where every package is optimally *compiled* by
your machine, and tetex version right now is  3.0_p1-r3
