Actually, it's about 10 minutes *after* texlive-kpathsea was installed, according to 'rpm -qi', which looks like about the time the update completed. Another odd thing was, the bulk of updates showed up in PackageKit. I ran them, then about a dozen more showed up, but PackageKit reported that there was 'no transaction' (or something). I ran yum about an hour later, which updated those packages (including texlive-kpathsea-lib). So I now have $ rpm -qa texlive-kpathsea\* texlive-kpathsea-bin-2010-3.20100420.fc12.16044.fc12.x86_64 texlive-kpathsea-lib-devel-2010-3.20100420.fc12.x86_64 texlive-kpathsea-2010-3.17541.fc13.noarch texlive-kpathsea-lib-2010-3.20100420.fc12.x86_64 In fact, I have 140 texlive packages labeled fc13.

Yes, everything appears commented out in fmtutil.cnf. Nothing is commented out in context.cnf, which looks like a lot of shell variable and parameter definitions. The same for texmf.cnf, wich has narrative comments, plus uncommented definitions. Everything is commented out in fmtutil-hdr.cnf (which appears to be just narrative comments anyway).

But you don't include evince (or anything else that builds against kpathsea, outside of TeXLive itself) in your repo. > > Jindrich > -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences mjs AT clemson DOT edu http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
