If the installation failed, please check the following points:
Is there enough room on your hard disk?
Is there any privately-compiled TeX system besides the Debian teTeX packages?
Does the command:
kpsewhich --format=cnf texmf
return /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf
?
Is texmf.cnf
modified a lot? Please check
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/
.
Did you set any TeX-related environment variable?
Try again. This might work in some cases.
For amstex, metapost
, eurosym,
texdoctk
, txfonts, pxfonts, etc., you
need tetex-extra
at present.
(pdftex
/pdflatex
should work basically only with
tetex-base
now.)
Is your language.dat
correct?
How to report a bug:
Please calm down anyway. ;)
Please check the Debian Bug Tracking System first.
Please read carefully the error messages, if any. It will help both you and us.
Please mention the version of teTeX you used.
Please attach a simple and short sample file which causes the problem you want to report.
Please respond to our questions.
It will be helpful to show us the output of the command:
ls /etc/texmf/texmf.d/*
If you see something like:
Unpacking replacement tetex-base ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/../tetex-base_*_all.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/share/texmf/dvips/config', which is also in package foo
then the problem should be of package foo
, not of
tetex-base
.
Note, basically, that we Debian teTeX maintainers do not add extra components which are not included in the upstream teTeX distribution.
