I just checked the Debian pmx repository and in fact the most recent (February 2004!) package has a script that calls tex. I've sent a note to the Debian maintainer. Until it gets fixed, Debian users of pmx and m-tx should install those packages from CTAN: http://mirror.ctan.org/support/pmx.zip http://mirror.ctan.org/support/mtx.zip or at least replace their pmx and mtx scripts by the scripts available there (or call pmxab, etex, etc. "by hand").
