I wonder why 'Install Since the Debian tetex-bin package already contains a pdftex program, this update' ?is optional and ConTeXt should work even if the release of pdftex provided by tetex-bin is a little bit old.
The Debian tetex-bin package contains a Fetch the 1.30.6 release (tar or zip archive) from [[http://sarovar.org/projects/pdftex programsarovar]].
I suggest to delete this paragraphFrom within the directory where you downloaded the archive file, execute the following series of commands:<code> # unzip pdftex-1.30.6.zip # cd pdftex-1.30.6</code>
→Install a [[pdfTeX]] update
== Install a [[pdfTeX]] update ==
Edit the build.sh file and add a valid datadir option:<code> ... ../src/configure \ --datadir=/usr/share \ --without-[[Userbibtex8 \ ...</code> Then run build.sh:Stappers|Stappers]] 12<code> # sh ./build.sh</code> If the build went OK, then the last four lines of terminal output are theactual binaries and pool files for pdftex and pdfetex. These have to replacetheir existing counterparts in the teTeX installation. '''Note:31''' The next commands assume that <tt>`which pdfetex`</tt> can actually find the executables from teTeX. If it doesn't work, 25 February 2006 (CET)then your PATH does not include the teTeX binaries directory yet, and you should fix that first. Likewise for <tt>`kpsewhich pdfetex.pool`</tt> <code> # cp -f build/texk/web2c/pdfetex `which pdfetex` # cp -f build/texk/web2c/pdfetex.pool `kpsewhich pdfetex.pool` # fmtutil-sys --all</code>
