+ Dominique Lohez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: | I am upgrading my system to fedora core 5 linux from the the scratch | [...] | I can't find the format file `latex.fmt'! | | Since both pdflatex.fmt and latex.fmt do exist and not listed in | /usr/share/texmf-var/ls-R regenerating this file allow to correct | the problem. | | Now my question Why the file ls-R is not uptodate
That is a question you will have to ask the maintaner of that particular rpm. (That person ought to be subscribed to this list, so will luck you will get an answer here. But otherwise, this list is not concerned with problems arising from various repackagings of teTeX.) | Do i update all such files ( there is a lot ) have to be updated to | avoid further difficulties ? If you run the command texhash with no further options, it should regenerate them all. If not your TeX system is misconfigured, and again the rpm maintainer is the one to complain to. - Harald
