Hi, I am using pdflatex under opensuse 10.3 without any modifications. I have two computers with what I thought was exactly the same installation. I also copied my entire home directory one to one from the first to the second computer. On the first computer the processing of my relatively simple myfile.tex file works without problems. But on the second computer I get
the following error message:

I tried to reinstall everything from the default repositories. I tried to compare the contents of the relevant directories on the two computers. I tried to compare the settings of the environment variables and the output of texconfig. I can't find any difference between the two installations. And the input files are identical.
I suspect some setup file is not correctly written. But which one? And how can this be if I installed everything as it came from the repository on both machines without ever making any modifications myself?
Please help!
Thanks in advance.

Try texhash as root. I have reported a similar bug with some texlive packages, maybe this is the same. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
