Hi Dalyoung,
Jeong Dal
I also had a similar problem recently after installing texlive 2017. But it is resolved now by doing the following according to the suggestions:
run mtxrun —generate and luatools —generate
May be, “ luatools —generate" is OK. I am using TeXshop in OS X. So I am not sure this works in Linux system. I hope that it may help.
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it did not work: luatools -generate resolvers | trees | analyzing 'home:texmf' resolvers | globbing | confusing filename, name: 'README.txt', lower: 'readme.txt', already: 'ReadMe.txt' mtxrun | unknown script 'base.lua' or 'mtx-base.lua' But never mind, I can work round the issue that caused the need for the old binaries. Cheers, Roger
