And some more questions. It's a bit unclear to me whether "The problem remains" means just that tetex-base cannot be configured, or specifically that it still fails with the same jadetex error? If it is still jadetex, then we also need the answers to the other questions asked earlier to the submitter: dpkg -l jadetex tetex-base tex-common ls -l /etc/texmf/fmt.d/ cat /etc/texmf/fmt.d/*jade* kpsewhich --format='web2c files' fmtutil.cnf # after becoming root the # same way you do for # dpkg/apt/aptitude # invocations Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f.
