Hi all,
after downloading the file pdftex-linux-20010417.zip from the ftp-archiv I
wanted to make the new formats.
Instead I'm getting:
axel@asus:~> texexec --make
TeXExec 2.6 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2001
! I can't read pdfetex.pool; bad path?
fmtutil: `pdfetex -ini -efmt=cont-en -progname=context *cont-en.ini' failed.
! I can't read pdfetex.pool; bad path?
fmtutil: `pdfetex -ini -efmt=cont-nl -progname=context *cont-nl.ini' failed.

TeX binary : pdfetex
format(s) : en nl metafun mptopdf
total run time : 4 seconds
axel@asus:~> kpsewhich pdfetex.pool
/var/lib/texmf/web2c/pdfetex.pool
the files pdftex.pool and pdfetex.pool had been updated.
Any hints how I can find what's wrong??
Thanks
