Hi Bruce,

I was getting the same thing, and I think it is because the perl script 
depends on find the environmental variables, especially TEXMF, and does not 
look at kpathsea. Try exporting (if you are on linux):

export TEXMF=/usr/share/texmf

or whatever your TeX root is. This should allow the script to continue...

HTH,

Glenn
