Got big problems with the fonts that are no more found when using the ruby stuff. Since the unix stubs are crappy, I do this:

ruby /usr/local/share/texmf-local/scripts/context/ruby/texmfstart.rb texexec.rb --pdf typefile.tex

this should be ok in this mornings version

Seems that the unix texmfstart stub is missing.

indeed; the fastest method is: cp texmfstart.rb .../bin/texmfstart or make a stub that directly points to your copy of texmfstart

What's wrong?

maybe you need to run mktexlsr

Doesn't help, and the required map files are here for a while (eg: kpsewhich ec-base.map gives /usr/local/share/texmf-local/fonts/map/pdftex/context/ec-base.map).

I tried to use the perl version, and now it tries to find stuff in dvipdfm fonts, which plants:

Warning: pdfetex (file /usr/local/share/texmf-local/fonts/map/dvipdfm/context/original-base.map): invalid entry for `fmvr8x': font file missing

It works if i remove (or rename) the dvipdfm directory.

What can i do to have ruby thing working, and pdftex fonts used instead of dvipdfm ones?

your texmf.cnf file should contain: TEXFONTMAPS = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{$progname,pdftex,dvips,}//;$TEXMF/{$progname,pdftex,dvips}/{config,}// as long as we have no uniform map file syntax, progs needs to be able to find their own map files Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Ok, thanks, modifying texmf.cnf as you say fixes the path precedence. Now, is there a ruby debug mode to see why the paths are lost with texexec.rb? Or tests I could do to find out what happens?

your texmf.cnf file should contain:

TEXFONTMAPS = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{$progname,pdftex,dvips,}//;$TEXMF/{$progname,pdftex,dvips}/{config,}//

For the ruby issue:

if I remove the TEXFONTMAPS environment setting from tex.rb, it works on my machine. I don't know if it can be a fix working on any platform:

def fixbackendvars(backend) if backend then report("fixing backend map path for #{backend}") if getvariable('verbose') ENV['backend'] = backend ; ENV['progname'] = backend unless validtexengine(backend) #ENV['TEXFONTMAPS'] = ".;\$TEXMF/fonts/map/{#{backend},pdftex,dvips,}//" else report("unable to fix backend map path") if getvariable('verbose') end end

i wonder why this does not work Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Unix likes column separator (and often cannot stand windows one ;-). If i change ';' into ':' it works. BTW, why is this set? Isn't it up to texmf.cnf to configure this (like for texexec.pl)?

as usual, it takes a while before such changes end up in the mainstream distributions Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

your texmf.cnf file should contain:

as long as we have no uniform map file syntax, progs needs to be able to find their own map files

i just did:

# rm -r /usr/local/share/texmf-local/fonts/map/dvipdfm/context # rm -r /usr/local/share/texmf-local/fonts/map/dvips/context # texhash

aren't these files awfully old anyway? are they needed? as cont-lm is not needed anymore i thought these are obsolete files...

the lm map files are needed (unless you have files on your syetem that do the same); context loads map files on demand and does not use updmap things Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
