fmtutil-sys might be the better option. But on a single user system
it doesn't make a difference.

And yes, --byengine is by far the best method for that.
(why didn't I implement that 4 years ago when packaging TL2005 for Debian,
it makes everything much easier ;-)

One of those push tapes installed in public washrooms enabling the
user to wash their trousers without actually getting into the
basin. The most powerful esher of recent years was 'damped down' by
Red Adair after an incredible sixty-eight days' fight in Manchester's
Piccadilly Station.
