Hi,
I just have uploaded a new teTeX-beta release which will soon appear on ctan, e.g.
ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/systems/unix/teTeX-beta/teTeX-src-beta-20021022.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/systems/unix/teTeX-beta/teTeX-texmf-beta-20021022.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/systems/unix/teTeX-beta/teTeX-texmfsrc-beta-20021022.tar.gz
or
ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/systems/unix/teTeX-beta/teTeX-src-beta-20021022.tar.gz
ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/systems/unix/teTeX-beta/teTeX-texmf-beta-20021022.tar.gz
ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/systems/unix/teTeX-beta/teTeX-texmfsrc-beta-20021022.tar.gz
This release contains the just released web2c-7.3.9 and I quote from
Olaf Weber's announcement about it:
I've put web2c 7.3.9 sources up on tug.org in ~ftp/tex. Thus they'll
appear on CTAN in due course.
The sources contain preliminary versions of pdftex and omega. Omega
has been hacked to use a different extension for its format files:
.oft instead of .fmt, as the latter clashes with TeX's default. I'd
much prefer to use .ofmt, but am not convinced that would be a good
idea, as truncating that extension gives .ofm, which is already
in use. On the other hand, feel free to convince me otherwise.
These sources are especially meant to allow Thomas and Fabrice and
me to sync up with each other, and may be of limited interest to
anyone else (though they should be fully functional). Expect this
release to be superceded "soon".
As always, I'd be glad to hear reports about successful builds (especially
if you use non-GNU compilers / tools).
The ChangeLog entries:
* merge with web2c-7.3.9
* texconfig: sometimes, we don't need tcdialog...
* clean up ranlib stuff / remove library before recreating it
* fix typo in texconfig
* add support files for win32
texmf tarball:
* update custom-bib
* update ccaption
