I tried to reproduce your problem here, by running the build process to generate the LL directories, then running ./buildone.sh amd64 el pdf This gave me an error, but it is different from yours, and quite sure a failure in the TeX code: ~/DebInstaller/installation-guide/build] ./buildone.sh amd64 el pdf Info: creating temporary profiled .xml file...
