texmfstart?
Thanks.
* You should be doing all I've added a bit of the installation as root, and therefore it should be in the folder /root, since that is root's home directoryextra explanation. [[User:Taco|Taco]]13:00, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
: I didn't read that section on the page, but on OS X for example, root's home is at /var/root (which is not really relevant, since on OS X nobody ever uses that) --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]]== lmodern in debian ==
== Can't locate .texmf-var folder ==Hi David,
Thanks for Can you check the answer <b>pg</b> but I did perform the installation as root and looked version number of latin modern in the /root folder but there was no folder named <tt>Debian please?It has to be '''precisely''' 0.89.3, or some ConTeXt documents will come out wrong.texmfThe cont-var</tt>lmt. What zip is separate because the font is this folder supposed to contain exactly? I hope these questions do not seem too stupid for words :)updated as frequently as cont-tmf.zip, but they really are tied together quite closely.
Thanks --[[User:Mark.pearsonTaco|Mark PearsonTaco]]

:MarkNever mind,:If you did I checked and the standard teTeX install as outlined on this page, then, after the <tt>texexec --make</tt>, the directory <tt>/root/newer version should be ok.texmf-var/web2c/</tt> (and its subfolder <tt>pdfetex</tt>) contains Hans will switch the generated formatsmain distriution over to 0. If this is not 92 for the casenext release as well, then your system simply does not match what I described (and assumed) on this Wiki page. In that case, perhaps we should continue this discussion on the mailing list (easier to have won't take longer than a dialog there)week or so anyway. --[[User:You should check the 'used engineformatpath' message from <tt>texexec</tt>.

used engineformatpath : == Wrong path? ==Hi, in the "code" section # cp -f build/tex/web2c/pdftex `which pdftex` # cp -f build/texk/web2c/rootpdfetex `which pdfetex` # cd build/tex/web2c # cp -f pdftex.pool pdfetex.pool /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c # fmtutil-varsys --refreshI think that in line 1 it should be build/'''texk'''/web2c/pdfetex/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![[User:213.213.136.102|213.213.136.102]] 16:17, 16 October 2005 (CEST) * 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 wellgenerated 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> --[[User:TacoMinusf|Minusf]] 23:13, 6 March 2006 (CET)  == 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? --[[User:ChristopherCreutzig|ChristopherCreutzig]] 15:17, 21 August 2006 (CEST) == texmfstart? == The page does not mention texmfstart yet. What is the proper way(TM) of installing it in teTeX? --[[User:ChristopherCreutzig|TacoChristopherCreutzig]]16:38, 21 August 2006 (CEST)
