1 Hi,
2
3 After building tetex 1.0.7-r11, using commands such as tex, latex,
4 pdflatex, etc, result in output "I can't find the file 'tex.fmt'" or
5 'latex.fmt' or 'pdflatex.fmt'...
6
7 The resolution for this is to execute
8
9 fmtutil --byfmt=tex
10 fmtutil --byfmt=latex
11 fmtutil --byfmt=pdflatex
12
13 For some reason, I never ran into this problem with previous versions of
14 TeX ebuild. Maybe there's a typo or something in this ebuild. I don't
15 have time to go thru it. Just wanted to bring this to the attn of the
16 developers.
17
18 Should this be submitted as a bug?

20 Thanks,
