It's still the user's responsibility to check for problems with changed conffiles before reporting a bug. But you are right, Hilmar, a package should care for this, and tetex *does*. We have extra code in the postinst to force /var/lib/texmf into TEXMF. Strange that it didn't work for Robert. Robert, can you send us your /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf and /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf, ideally the versions before you fixed it? Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ.
