I have two F12 systems with texlive-2009 installed. On one of them, pdflatex works fine. On the other, I get this error: $ pdflatex simple.tex This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (Web2C 2009) kpathsea: Running mktexfmt pdflatex.fmt I can't find the format file `pdflatex.fmt'! On the working system, pdflatex.fmt is in ${HOME}/.texlive2009/texmf-var/web2c/pdftex/pdflatex.fmt, but on the failing system, that file is missing. Reinstalling and rerunning texconfig doesn't help. Any idea what's going on?
