What? There's a difference between teTeX and laTeX? Damn! This explains why there was no texconfig program this time around. I thought something was odd. I'd recommend that the comments in both ports be a bit more verbose if it is indeed the case that the latex port is outdated. -r Sender: stephen@math.missouri.edu Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2002 10:02:16 -0600 From: Stephen Montgomery-Smith <stephen@math.missouri.edu> Organization: University of Missouri X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.79 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Ross Lippert <ripper@eskimo.com> CC: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: dvips576 missing References: <200202221306.FAA17954@eskimo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Ross Lippert wrote: > > Is there any reason why the dvips576 source file is not currently > hosted on the freebsd ftp servers?
