Hi Mojca, Thanks for your two answers. I guess updating my distribution is the first priority--perhaps that is causing all the errors I just posted in answer to Wolfgang's suggestion.
I'll try your suggestion and then see if it works, will confirm to the mailing list once I know. Thanks Roland PS Is it always necessary to upgrade a fresh distribution immediately? I am a bit surprised that a fresh MacTex from December would already be so outdated...
