(I hope this is the right place to send this q)

Following the " Primer for New Contributors," i'm trying to convert a sgml
file to text and then pdf.
I used 'Example A-1' (DocBook <book>)  as the content for my file, and
converted to tex as indicated in 'Example A-5'.
Finally, I attempted to convert it to pdf and the following happened:

	% tex "&pdfjadetex" firstbook.tex
	This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.1)
	(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)


I'm running release 4.3 and i did a cvsup before installing the docproj
files. While compiling i ran out of room on my /usr partition, so that
files that had not been installed were installed through the packets
system: jadetex, links, netpbm, peps, sp. They were downloaded from
current.

This is a pkg_info listing of the files that could be relevent (i left the
others out of this listing but they are installed):
docbook-241
docbook-3.0
docbook-3.1
docbook-4.0
docbook-4.1
dsssl-docbook-modular-1.71
iso8879-1986
jade-1.2.1_1
jadetex-3.6
mkcatalog-1.1
sgmlformat-1.7
sp-1.3.4
teTeX-1.0.7

pdfjadetex files are present in these two places:

/usr/local/share/texmf/web2c/pdfjadetex.fmt
/usr/local/share/sgml/jade/pdfjadetex.ini

Oh, converting to Postscript works fine.
Any way to fix this problem?

thanks,
