Re: Installing texlive under Fedora 17 --- Solved?

2013-04-12 Thread Rolf Turner



Sorry, I did not mean to send my previous message to the list, since
Joe Zeff had asked to email him off-list.  I just clicked on "Reply" 
thinking

my message would just go to the sender.  (I didn't click on "Reply List"
or "Reply All".)  And then I didn't notice that the To field was the list
until after I sent it.  (So Thunderbird messes around too; it's not just
LaTeX! :-) )

Apologies.

cheers,

Rolf Turner

Brain fart.  Don't worry about it.  Tish happens.  If you want to know 
about one that had me going round in circles for several hours 
recently, email me off-list.


Sure!  Tell me about it.  It's comforting to know that I am not alone
in having these, uh, mental lapses. :-)

cheers,

Rolf

Further to my previous message:  Maybe I *am* a moron and not just
an idiot studying hard to be one.  I realized that I should have been doing

ps2pdf demo.ps

not

ps2pdf demo

and *that* was the source of the error that I was getting.

So it all seems to be working now.  I guess the problem is "solved".

I still don't understand why the error that I originally got, relating to
"hypdestopt" went away.  I really didn't change ***ANYTHING*** in the
interim.  I did not reboot; I didn't even log out and log back in.

It is utterly mystifying.

cheers,

Rolf Turner
