Idris,

I sympathize, but I think you're a bit unfair here. If I understand  
Hans's mail right, he was not installing from the image, but rsyncing  
his trees with TeXLive, and that's where the error was. I've been  
running the development version for at least three months now (even  
when it still was called 2006...) and haven't had any troubles,  
especially wrt to fonts and packages. On a linux or OS X box, I would  
even recommend installing it alongside the minimal and switch between  
them to test things, but I have no idea if/how this is possible on  
winblows.

Best

Thomas
