texmfstart?

~~The link to the Latin Modern map files does not seem to work. I have downloaded the zip from~~

~~[http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/lm/ http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/lm/]~~

~~and copied the maps for dvips to texmf-local/fonts/map/dvips. Running updmap is then needed to rebuild the maps.~~

~~I noticed that too. Hans and I are working on a replacement solution (hopefully tomorrow) [[User:Taco|Taco]]~~

If I understand it well, the files that have to be added to the cont-lmt is the dvips map file. Would it be possible to add the dvips maps directly into cont-lmt.zip? It contains pdftex maps, anyway. D.A.

~~I've made the page use my temporary zip file, for now [[User:Taco|Taco]]~~

In the section entitled ''Install the zip archive'' towards the end of the page, the line

Thanks.

== lmodern in debian ==

Hi David,

Can you check the version number of latin modern in Debian please?

It has to be '''precisely''' 0.89.3, or some ConTeXt documents will come out wrong.

The cont-lmt.zip is separate because the font is not updated as frequently as

cont-tmf.zip, but they really are tied together quite closely.

dpkg -l lmodern gives

lmodern 0.92-7 scalable PostScript fonts for european chara

Could you, please, give me one or two ConTeXt documents that may come out wrong ?

--[[User:David.marsal|David]]

Never mind, I checked and the newer version should be ok. Hans will switch the main distriution over to 0.92 for the next release as well, and that won't take longer than a week or so anyway. --[[User:Taco|Taco]] 15:31, 12 Sep 2005 (UTC)

== Wrong path? ==

Hi, in the "code" section

# cp -f build/tex/web2c/pdftex `which pdftex`

# cp -f build/texk/web2c/pdfetex `which pdfetex`

# cd build/tex/web2c

# cp -f pdftex.pool pdfetex.pool /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c

# fmtutil-sys --refresh

I think that in line 1 it should be build/'''texk'''/web2c/pdftex ...

...at least I couldn't find any directory named "tex".

And then I would like to thank the authors of this page for saving my life with these simple and streightforward instructions on installing this, well, complicated software!

* You are right, will fix that right away. Thanks [[User:Taco|Taco]] 11:57, 17 October 2005 (CEST)

== last stage: making the formats global ==

the last 2 steps are given as:

<code>

# cp -a /root/.texmf-var/web2c/* /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-var/web2c

# texhash

</code>

but <tt>/root/.texmf-var/web2c/*</tt> includes all the other formats as well

generated when pdftex/metapost was updated...

and the context formats are in <tt>/root/.texmf-var/web2c/pdfetex/*</tt>, aren't they?

so, for me it is not clear if it's enough what to move. shouldn't it be:

<code>

# mv /root/.texmf-var/web2c/pdfetex /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-var/web2c

# texhash

</code>

== beta ==

There is a pdftex beta for 1.40 at sarovar. I have not tried yet, but I assume it is installed just like 1.30. Could a knowledgeable soul check this and edit the page?

== texmfstart? ==

The page does not mention texmfstart yet. What is the proper way(TM) of installing it in teTeX?
