teTeX 0.9 - A note.

Applies to

SuSE Linux: Version 6.0

Symptom:

You are baffled by the differences in the TeX system on SuSE Linux 6.0.

Reason:

The time was right to stop using teTeX 0.4. As a result of SuSE Linux moving from version 5.x to version 6.x, fundamental changes were made to system components, most notibly, the location of files certain files.

The TeX system of SuSE Linux - based on teTeX - must satisfy two standards: The FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard; see the document package "fhs" in the series "doc") and the TDS (TeX Directory Standard).

Notes:

Since version 0.4, teTeX has changed significantly; such that it made sense to separate this package into separate sub packages. For individual packages, please read the package description which is available in YaST by pressing F2 when the package is highlighted (see Package Information in the Index of the manual). You can also find information in the SuSE help system.

The majority of files are located in the /usr/share/texmf/ directory. The special information of the teTeX implementation is located in /usr/share/texmf/teTeX/. The configuration information is located inder /etc/texmf/, and other variable data is located inder /var/lib/texmf/. The Font cache is in /var/cache/fonts/. The old data in /var/texfonts/ should either be moved to the new directory or deleted and as necessary, regenerated.

The script /etc/cron.daily/tetex.cron will remove fonts that were generated a while ago.
