I use (as root: sudo) the following shell script to install the latest pdfetex. For me it works. It might be of use to you.
#!/bin/sh echo "Installing Pdftex..." umask 022 unzip pdftex-1.30.4.zip cd pdftex-1.30.4 sh ./Build cp -f build/texk/web2c/pdftex `which pdftex` cp -f build/texk/web2c/pdftex.pool `kpsewhich pdftex.pool` cp -f build/texk/web2c/pdfetex `which pdfetex` cp -f build/texk/web2c/pdfetex.pool `kpsewhich pdfetex.pool`
ok
chown -R root:wheel /usr/local/teTeX chmod -R u+w /usr/local/teTeX chmod -R a+r /usr/local/teTeX umask 027
I can not understand these commands. Why need that ?
cd .. echo "Installing Pdftex done." exit
Why not add command "fmtutil-sys --refresh" at end of your script ? -- http://vnoss.org Vietnamese Open Source Software Community
