That looks like a result of the following CHANGES item from the upstream authors: Patchlevel 5c (Jan 4, 2010) BUGS FIXED: o transfig command was hardwired for "tex" for "make all" directive and removing files with "make clean" directive in creating Makefile What's the actually correct behavior here? I touched this package last to fix some other packaging annoyances (some of which were most easily solved by pushing the new version). But I don't know much about tex other than that I use it sometimes. You asked for "-L pstex", so should it be generating myfigure.pstex (bug in the later rules that are still hardcoding .tex)? Or should it be generating myfigure.tex (i.e., pstex is a variant of tex that still has the same extension and is just generated using different internal commands)? dan -- Daniel Macks [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
