bibtex failure on latest minimals

bibtex failure on latest minimals

[Alan BRASLAU]

An update today of the minimals breaks the bibtex search path:

This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2010/pretest)
Capacity: max_strings=150000, hash_size=150000, hash_prime=127507
The top-level auxiliary file: Livre.aux
I couldn't open style file cont-no.bst
---line 2 of file Livre.aux
 : \bibstyle{cont-no
 :                  }
I'm skipping whatever remains of this command
I found no style file---while reading file Livre.aux

whereas minimals from Friday (11 June) succeeds:

This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2010/pretest)
Capacity: max_strings=150000, hash_size=150000, hash_prime=127507
The top-level auxiliary file: Livre.aux
The style file: cont-no.bst

Is texmf.cnf still ok? There should be a BSTINPUTS line there.

Best wishes,
Taco

To check this, I re-installed the minimals this morning
and now bibtex works. BSTINPUTS is defined in texmf.cnf;
I do not know what was there yesterday...

Looks ok, but I have the same problem. This is the line from texmf.cnf:

BSTINPUTS = .;{$TXRESOURCES}//;{$CTXDEVTXPATH};$TEXMF/bibtex/bst//

I also got that error when my texlsr was corrupted/outdated. Running 
mktexlsr fixed bibtex for me. (Additionally I had to run setuptex{.bat} 
first, before bibtex worked correctly.)

The problem must be elsewhere. After updating the minimals this morning,
bibtex now works. The definition of BSTINPUTS is indeed as above.
As I had removed the broken version that I had installed this weekend,
I can no longer reproduce the error.

Yup, things seem fine again after running mktexlsr.
