Subject: Problem with hppa build environment (was: Bug#340279: Does not
 configure (aleph+omega failed))

Hi Christian, hi Ryan,=20

there seems to be a problem on the hppa buildd. Are files in the /tmp
directory that were created during the failed tetex-bin install on
2005-11-22 still available?

The file cp227.tcx is in tetex-base, which is claimed in the buildd log
to be already installed. The file should be in /usr/share/texmf/web2c,
and I am confident that it is there even on the buildd.=20=20

If it was in fact missing, the warning should be given for many more
formats. The fact that is not found only in some cases points to a
hardware or filesystem problem.

Is this file still available?
