The texlive that comes with fedora 17 is texlive 2007, the version
from the tug link is texlive 2013. On my system I used yum to remove
texlive, then downloaded the .iso from tug, mounted the iso, installed
from that and it works fine.
OK. I have managed to download the "iso", mounted it, cd-ed to the
mount point,
and run ./install-tl. Turned out I had to sudo the command (which seems
inconsistent
with the instructions on the TUG web page, but never mind). I set the
PATH environment
variable in my .cshrc file, and things seemed to work.
But ***then*** I tried to run latex on a file for a talk that I have to
give in a week's time,
and all hell broke loose. The talk makes use of the powerdot class, and
when I do
latex on it, I get:
! Package hypdestopt Error: This package requires pdfTeX in PDF mode.
See the hypdestopt package documentation for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.

But powerdot is incompatible with pdfTeX.
It ***used to*** work!!! (Why do these things always happen
to ***me***?)
I have attached a file demo.tex to demonstrate the problem.
What do I need to do to get things to work? (Panic is starting
to set in.)
Thanks for any insight.
cheers,
Rolf Turner
