it's a virtual package now.

Erm... exactly what does that mean? It shows up when I do a 'fink list'; is it
not supposed to?


I tried to run `latex keys.latex', and I got this:

On my system, latex.fmt is /sw/var/lib/texmf/web2c/latex.fmt . Is this present on yours?

Yep, it's there:
736k -rw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 734k Jul 17 11:30 /sw/var/lib/texmf/web2c/latex.fmt


I asked this question on the lilypond mailing list, and I was advised to
do a `fmtutil --all'; I did this with and without sudo, and I got this:


| fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found.


Hmm. that's supposed to be under /sw/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf . Is this the case on your system?

Yes, this file is present too:
4.0k -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 3.5k Jul 13 18:39 /sw/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf


Should the permissions be different (maybe like '-rw-rw-rw-')?

Thanks for your help!
