Hello,
I've a problem that I've never seen before with my teTeX installation. This
is the preamble:
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{fullpage}
\usepackage[francais]{babel}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage{wrapfig}
\usepackage{graphicx}
%\usepackage{ulem}
%\usepackage{multirow}

Hi
I have installed these packages on an AIX workstation:
teTeX-src-1.0.7.tar.gz
teTeX-texmf-1.0.1.tar.gz
teTeX-texmfsrc-1.0.1.tar.gz
Now, while I am testing it, this error occured (when I want to preview a
TeX-document by xdvi):
kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 1+120

Interesting, but IMHO texdoc should do the decompression and not assume
that the viewer does this. ghostview doesn't. acroread dosn't (compressing
pdf does not make sense, but one can never be sure what people do).

Thanks to Denis Bar

Many thanks! I have put these in the TeX Live sources, at least.

No, it is from the package collection.
Now everything works fine, I have made the mistake to install another
LaTeX and xdvi package too, because I was not sure if they were
included in teTeX-1.0.6.tgz from
Thanks to all who responded, all good suggestions. I am presently
investigating Ed's C scripts and pondering. If I figure out the
'definitive' solution I'll post.
Many thanks again,

Well, this feature can easily be added and I might do that
Hi!
In the debian distribution of tetex, all dvi files for packages are compressed
with gzip. It seems that the tools like texdoc, pksewhich and friends fail
becuase of that. Are there any plans to make them recognize compressed files ?
THanks.
