texlive upgrade[Solved]

donpicoro · 2009-09-11 18:37:56

Hi all,
I just upgrade the following packages:

texlive-bin-2009.2-1  texlive-core-2009.15197-1  texlive-latexextra-2009.15178-1  texlive-publishers-2009.14714-1  texlive-science-2009.14871-1

and for each of the the following packages:

texlive-core texlive-latexextra texlive-science

I get the following error:

>>> texlive: updating the fontmap files with updmap...

!!! ERROR! The map file `ams-bsr-interpolated.map' has not been found at all.

    Either put this file into the right place or remove the
    reference from the configuration file. An automatic way
    to disable unavailable map files is to call
      updmap --syncwithtrees

    For manual editing, call
      updmap --edit

 done.

The systems seems to be running OK and I wonder If I should do something about it?
I just do not like to get errors while upgrading.

I have the same error, plus the fact that I can't use pdflatex anymore. I have this error when generating a pdf with pdflatex:

!pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file 8r.enc): cannot open encoding file for reading
 ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

I tried the usual commands (not in this order):

sudo fmtutil-sys --all
sudo updmap-sys --syncwithtrees
fmtutil --all
updmap --syncwithtrees
rm -rf ~/.texlive

and it doesn't work. Any ideas?

donpicoro · 2009-09-11 19:06:23

the thing is that in a previous texlive updagrade I ended with the known

Fatal format file error; I'm stymied

but that was easily solved back them by using the command you already know

fmtutil --all

as regular user.
The error this time seems to be harmless and seems to be corrected by the command mentioned there

updmap --syncwithtrees

Either way, my system is actually working. I just wanted to understand the error.
For your error, you may also want to look at http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=78778 for some ideas or wait here and I will try to help you.

Are you using LyX?

_flx · 2009-09-11 19:14:54

I don't think I am using LyX (otherwise I guess I would knew it).

I read the page you linked me, but found no solution to my problem.

donpicoro · 2009-09-11 20:03:01

I know this is a very lame answer, but... have you run "texhash" as root?

Besides that? Why are you needing that encoding? I do not have such file either (but that is ok, I do not need it)

I just did and the error is still present.

When I need to write in spanish, I use the option in the document
\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
In case that helps

_flx · 2009-09-11 20:11:30

I'm always using

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

and it always worked until the last update. I tried the line you just mentioned and the error is still present.

jxy · 2009-09-11 20:29:29

I think 8r.enc just disappeared with recent upgrade of texlive-core from texlive-core-2009.14682-1 to texlive-core-2009.15197-1

There is the file

usr/share/texmf-dist/fonts/enc/dvips/base/8r.enc

in texlive-core-2009.14682-1-any.pkg.tar.gz, but it does not exist in texlive-core-2009.15197-1-any.pkg.tar.gz.

_flx · 2009-09-11 20:31:18

@jxy
Do you know the reason? Because right now, it's causing me problems.

donpicoro · 2009-09-11 20:33:41

8r.enc is supposed to be in the dvips package provided by texlive-core. But as I told you, I do not have it either.
I do not why it is not there anymore. Maybe a bug... before decide that, you should look at the texlive changelog.

Since you seem to need it, try downloading the file directly from CTAN:
http://www.ctan.org/cgi-bin/filenameSea … rch=Search
and place it somewhere, maybe /usr/share/texmf-dist/fonts/enc/dvips/ ??
and then texhash it.

Hope that helps, I am running out of ideas

jxy · 2009-09-11 20:44:51

You won't see this problem if you use the standard cmr fonts.

Please create a file "test.tex" with content as following

\documentclass{letter}

\usepackage{mathptmx}

\begin{document}

Hello world!

\end{document}

And run

pdflatex test

You will see

Simply downloading the file doesn't fix the problem. It leads to another error. Strangely, I don't have the following directory anymore:

/usr/share/texmf-dist/fonts/enc/dvips/base/

I tried to reinstall both texlive-core and texlive-bin, but it doesn't fix anything.

jxy · 2009-09-11 20:55:13

But this file is in the texlive repository. See

http://www.tug.org/svn/texlive/trunk/Ma … hrev=15221

jxy · 2009-09-11 21:01:54

I see the bug report.

http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16144

So, for now, I'll just use the directory "usr/share/texmf-dist/fonts/enc/dvips/base/" contained in "texlive-core-2009.14682-1-any.pkg.tar.gz", since the directory hasn't changed since rev12784.

donpicoro · 2009-09-11 22:03:38

Well, it seems now it is a matter of time and re-upgrade!!!

jxy · 2009-09-11 22:34:21

That's why I LOVE archlinux!

There might be a conflicting file, however. See this News.
