Bob, I guess it's time to ask you for some help... :)
As you can see below, I am trying to use the zope-2.8, python-2.4, and the "darcs" versions of both ZWiki and LatexWiki. I have been testing my LatexWiki installation procedure on Debian as outlined below. All goes well (with modifications of recipe inserted below) but when I get to the point of wanting to create my first ZWiki of Type: (*) latexwiki, I find that I do not have this option in the ZWiki Add form. In spite of that, I do have the ...+Latex pagetypes when I try to edit a page. It seems as if something in the product initialization has failed, but I do not see any error messages when I have 'debug-mode on' and use 'runzope'. Can you give me some ideas about what to try?

Again Debian makes this quite easy: > apt-get install tetex-base tetex-bin tetex-extra gs \ python2.4-imaging cd /var/lib/zope2.8/instance/zope1/bin edit runzope and zopectl to use python2.4 > > To install LatexWiki itself try this: > > cd /home/LatexW > darcs get http://bob.mcelrath.org/darcs/latexwiki > cd /var/lib/zope2.8/instance/zope1/Products > cp -r /home/LatexW/latexwiki/LatexWiki . > cp -r /home/LatexW/latexwiki/ZWiki . We also need to install the LocalFS product: wget http://www.easyleading.org/Downloads/LocalFS-1.7rc1-andreas.tar.gz tar xzvf LocalFS-1.7rc1-andreas.tar.gz ../bin/zopectl restart > > Since Bob is no longer maintaining an LatexWiki in sync with the > latest version of ZWiki, you might experience some problems getting > LatexWiki to work properly with the current version of ZWiki.
