I'm pretty sure I have it installed; when I type mf at the prompt I get: This is METAFONT, Version 2.7182 (Web2C 7.4.5) **
I have the files mf and mfw in /usr/share/texmf/bin Configure detects everything automatically except kpathsea, which is installed in the default directory /usr/share/texmf/(lib; include) and does not complain after typing export LDFLAGS..... etc. It does tell me to please consider installing optional programs: kpsewhich, (how would I do that?) Also, maybe I'm doing something really stupid, because I'm a bit of a linux newbie. Anyway, thanks for your help (& congrats on the new release!), David --- Jan Nieuwenhuizen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > sdf sdfs writes: > > > make[1]: Entering directory > > `/home/david/lilypond-2.4.0/mf' > > echo mf mfont not found "\mode:=laserjet; > nonstopmode; > > You should install metafont, probably in the tetex > package.
