I've discovered that the problem is that there is a missing symlink. The symlink required for woody (which may well be different for potato or sid) is: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Jan 9 15:27 /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/XDvi -> /etc/X11/Xresources/tetex-base Rory -- Rory Campbell-Lange <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <www.campbell-lange.net>
