[Xapian-devel] texlive on Ubuntu halting 'make'

[John Terzis]

Hi,

I am currently in the process of installing the latest release that I
cloned from git in an effort to complete an application for GSOC. I am
running into an issue however with 'make' on my Ubuntu 64bit Linux version
. Below is the code that make reports upon exiting with multiple errors.
They seems to be related to my latex installation which aborted in error
due to missing entry /etc/texmf/texmf.d/55Fonts.cnf when I tried to apt-get
install texlive . The error by the texlive installer also indicates that
the correct version should be available as 55Fonts.cnf.ucf-dist.
Apparently, after searching for this file using
apt-file find 55Fonts.cnf.ucf-dist  , it does not appear in my version of
Ubuntu (11.04). I was curious if anyone else has encountered this issue
with texlive installation when building on Ubuntu. Google searches on the
issue reveal that it is in fact a missing component of Ubuntu but there is
no indication of a method to retrieve the correct file.



This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (TeX Live 2009/Debian)

kpathsea: Running mktexfmt pdflatex.fmt
/usr/bin/mktexfmt: 974: /texconfig/tcfmgr: not found
fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found.
I can't find the format file `pdflatex.fmt'!
