Haha ! with this tip I get an error message from 'pdftex' : libstdc++.so.5 ... No such file ...
Taco, what's the state with this particular library dependency? There are two problems: - texexec might not always check if pdftex fails and it eats some messages inbetween - library dependency should be fixed
The libstdc++6 is installed. What can I do ?
I installed libstdc++5 - now pdftex complains "cant find ... 'cont-en.fmt' "
What about texexec --make --all ? When I started using ConTeXt (2004) the average running time for "hello world" documents was definitely somewhere between 30 seconds and a minute. But it has improved dramaticaly over time (3 seconds in the second run as I mentioned) whereas LaTeX runtime has increased. But TeXLive 2007 is not so old after all, so it's still a bit strange.
i dont know if it is of interest for you: - I switched back to TL2007 (now pdftex finds 'cont-en') - texexec source.tex compiles 3 min 14 sec for 1 page of pdf - pdftex -fmt cont-en compiles 1 sec and produces a dvi file
Weird. Maybe texexec does some crazy stuff, but it's a bit hard to tell what exactly. Mojca
