Re: Problems with teTeX on FreeBSD 4.7
Building the most recent teTeX (tetex-src-1.0.7.tar.gz) on our OpenBSD Sparc server proceeded without problems. When I tried to add support for our FreeBSD i386 platforms by mounting the proper directories on the freebsd platform, logging in there and doing: Thanks for your bug report. Since you have found your work-around and since I am close to release a new version of teTeX, it does not make much sense to try fixing teTeX-1.0.7 in this respect. The current teTeX-beta (which is already close to the next teTeX release) is known to work fine on FreeBSD/i386. If you want to try it yourself, follow the beta versions link on the teTeX homepage (http://tug.org/teTeX/). Thomas

The main change is added support for dvipdfm. ChangeLog entries: src tarball: * dvipdfm added * texconfig support for dvipdfm * AC_ARG_ENABLE fix for xdvik * bugfix for localized pool files in fmtutil * update localized pool files texmf tarball: * doc/context/ms-cb-en.pdf removed (silly copyright which Hans did not fix) * update texdoctk's database * explicit encoding for Knuth's 75 fonts in map files; this helps dvipdfm Thomas

TE == Thomas Esser writes: TE * explicit encoding for Knuth's 75 fonts in map files; this helps TE dvipdfm that will make dvips-generated PS files a bit bigger (if the explicit encoding is used in dvips map file too) - so just a thought: maybe it's possible to have sriver-sprcific source map files (from which driver-specific final map files are generated)? e.g. there may be a map file inside texmf/dvipdfm/* for CM fonts with explicit encoding, and a map file for CM fonts (with the same name) without explicit encoding in texmf/dvips/*, and updmap can get the proper file to take into account such things?
