Hi,
first of all Happy New Year 2005!!
Trying to configure on an IRIX64 6.5 gives this error message:
configuring in web2c
running /bin/sh ./configure --disable-multiplatform --prefix=/scratch/a0640/tetex --with-x --with-system-libwww --with-system-libpng --with-system-ncurses --enable-a4 --cache-file=.././config.cache -
-srcdir=.
loading cache .././config.cache
./configure[600]: syntax error at line 74 : `{' unmatched
configure: error: ./configure failed for web2c
configure: error: ./configure failed for texk
I took a look at the configure script in texk/web2c/, but I couldn't find something that causes the problem.
regards
Benedikt

This 2.99.8 *is* the second release candidate of teTeX-3.0. Several portability bugs have been fixed, so it should now work better on non-linux systems...
As usual: please, send me feedback, even if it all just works :-) Feedback on 2.99.7 is a little lower then usual (especially on "traditional" UNIX systems); I think this is because several active testers have not been "at work" these days.
teTeX-3.0 has failed the announced "target" of being released in 2004, but I think that somethin in (early?) January 2005 should be possible.

Changes in the src area: * fix a portability bug in mktexlsr * update texconfig and fmtutil to make "texconfig formats" much faster * fix a bug in parse_ofm.c (patch by Hossein Movahhedian) * fmtutil: rename variable verbose to avoid a clash with a shell function of the same name (portability fix) * new web2c version number (from Olaf): web2c-7.5.4 * tex.ch: Implement \ifeof18 to test whether \write18 is enabled * mp.ch and mf.ch: add check for serial_no counter overflow * different implementation of texmfvar feature in mktexnam * fix a small bug in dvips.texi * fix texconfig-dialog (set missing defaults for DIALOG_TERMINFO / DIALOG_TERM)
Changes in the texmf area: * fix tx8r.enc -> 8r.enc in Context's map files * updated the pdftex manual * add trchars.adj and trfonts.map (for groff support in metapost support programs)
Happy testing + have fun!
Thomas
