I can't find file `mfplain'. l.27 input mfplain ; Please type another input file name: I have to emerge texlive-metapost to resolve the problem. So the question is: Why texlive-metapost is not a dependency of lilypond (or texlive) if it's necessary? Reproducible: Always hkbst@gentoo.org 2008-07-04 13:33:57 0000 Right, I think because I still have app-text/tetex-3.0_p1-r6 installed which provides /usr/share/texmf/metapost/base/mfplain.mp. yvasilev@gentoo.org 2008-09-03 15:04:11 0000 I have exactly the same problem with all versions >=media-sound/lilypond-2.11.50 emerging dev-texlive/texlive-metapost soleves it. nils@marving.dk 2008-09-07 18:37:44 0000 Adding dev-texlive/texlive-metapost to dependencies solved it for me too... codez_iccd_99@yahoo.com 2008-09-11 19:42:46 0000 "Or" in RDEPEND would be nice. || ( dev-texlive/texlive-metapost app-text/tetex ) or something. It seems that there has been a dep for virtual/tetex which has been commented out (virtual/ doesn't have tetex anymore) but replacement-dep hasn't been added. This bug applies for lilypond-2.11.56 (and lilypond-2.11.52, perhaps for lilypond-2.11.51) too. jlhamm@acm.org 2008-10-09 21:37:27 0000 Also for lilypond 2.11.58. This is from a fresh install so there were no old teTex packages laying around either. :-) hkbst@gentoo.org 2008-10-31 11:56:38 0000 *** Bug 240632 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** hkbst@gentoo.org 2008-10-31 13:47:19 0000 fixed in 2.11.63 aparat2@wp.pl 2009-02-18 18:35:10 0000 What about lilypond-2.12.1? Can't use tetex and lilypond? fauli@gentoo.org 2009-03-04 13:21:32 0000 (In reply to comment #8) > What about lilypond-2.12.1? Can't use tetex and lilypond? Migrate to TeXLive.
