at this point I thought I had best stop stumbling around and ask for help. My base system is Slackware LInux 10.0.
There should be a package named "ruby" or similar on Slackware, and that has to be installed. Cheers, Peter As it happens, there isn't, and this a full Slackware install. I have installed many versions of TeXlive over the years. I have upgraded Context several times. This error message is new.
If Ruby is necessary to make the minimal linux package offered on Pragma functional it would be helpful to specify that in the readme. I thought the Pragma Linux TeX package was self-contained. It would also be helpful if a fmtutil.cnf file were included so that fmtutil would work. I will try downloading ruby from somewhere, installing that and moving forward. If that doesn't work then I will give up on the Pragma minmal distro. It is a good idea, but it doesn't work correctly. -- John Culleton Short list of publishing/marketing books: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf Book packagers/coaches/consultants: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf Printers who are SPAN sponsors: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/printers.pdf
