Building the most recent teTeX (tetex-src-1.0.7.tar.gz) on our OpenBSD Sparc server proceeded without problems. When I tried to add support for our FreeBSD i386 platforms by mounting the proper directories on the freebsd platform, logging in there and doing:
make distclean ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/teTeX make world I had the following problems: compile of: libs/libwww/HTReader.c failed because of multiple definitions of strnstr. Arranging for strings.h to not be included when compiling this file allowed a clean compile. (You also have to prevent memory.h from being included, since that includes string.h). texconfig not running because it couldn't find the configuration file. All the binaries compiled and installed in the correct place, but the config file couldn't be found. I fixed this by cd texmk/kpathsea make distclean ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/teTeX make make install And now it all seems to work. This seems like it may be a bug in the teTeX makefiles. Thanks again for teTeX Thomas. sdb -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
