Dear fink-devel, I got the following message from a user who is running tetex on 10.3. The setsid error message is very mysterious. Does anybody have any idea what could cause this? Could it be related to the changes in default permissions in 10.3?
(What's happening here is that xdvi calls /sw/bin/mktexpk which is a script that causes new fonts to get built, and stored someplace -- maybe in /sw/var someplace IIRC.) -- Dave > I keep seeing the following error when xdvi is trying to create fonts > to view a dvi file: > > > fruitbat ~/Documents/LaTeX % xdvi test.dvi > - mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 'magstep(0)' --dpi 600 > cmmi10 '>&3' > setsid: Operation not permitted > - mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 'magstep(0)' --dpi 600 cmr10 > '>&3' > setsid: Operation not permitted > xdvi: can't find font cmmi10. > - mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 'magstep(0)' --dpi 600 cmmi7 > '>&3' > setsid: Operation not permitted > - mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 'magstep(0)' --dpi 600 cmr10 > '>&3' > setsid: Operation not permitted > xdvi: can't find font cmmi7. > - mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 'magstep(0)' --dpi 600 cmr10 > '>&3' > setsid: Operation not permitted > - mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 'magstep(0)' --dpi 600 cmr10 > '>&3' > setsid: Operation not permitted > - mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 'magstep(0)' --dpi 600 cmr10 > '>&3' > setsid: Operation not permitted > xdvi: can't find font cmex10. > xdvi: Not all pixel files were found > > I'm pretty sure that this is something 10.3 specific, becuaei 'ts the > same error that my initial /sw directory from 10.2 had (before I blew > it away and started from scratch with the 10.3 happy fink stuff) > > If you could provide any englightenment? > > thanks, > B> > -- > Bruce Murphy - OBEL Group > Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering > University of Western Australia > > ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
