Hi people,

Can you please give me a hand with this? I don't have experience with teTeX, so I have no idea of what's wrong.

The build log is attached (bz2). I'll be happy to give more details; I'm running Debian GNU/Linux (unstable), and this is FPK 1.0.4.

Thanks,
Carlos.

Hi,

on a first guess I wonder if you have edited /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf according to debian/Readme.Debian. The "pool size" and another setting have to be changed (don't know it exactly atm).

And you should run debian/rules clean before doing another attempt to compile the docs (this is somewhat related to how Latex works with temporary files, *.aux a.s.o)

Do you have up-to-date Debian tetex packages?

Greetings,
Ulf

P.S.: You should send a patch with all your changes (e.g. changelog) to Peter Vreman , he maintains the Debian port
on the Free Pascal side.

You must increase pdftex's pool size.
Find a file texmf.cnf in the tetex directories. In it, there should be an entry

pool_size=xxx
(or something similar, just look for the word 'pool')

increase the value you find there to at least 1000000

Michael.
