Merged tetex-3.0_p1-r1 on a system which had never had tetex installed on it before. In addition to other problems which are already filed as other bugs, the ebuild apparently does not set the TeX environment variables.

Could you try to run texmf-update and try again. We are having some tetex problems lately (you have probably noticed). But they are all hopefully soon fixed, and running texmf-update at the end of the installation of tetex is one of the things we need to fix.

We know about the permissions problem (files are created using the permissions on texmf-update). I hope to have this all fixed by friday.
Try to resync and upgrade to tetex-3.0_p1-r2 as usual (without doing anything else), and report back if that fixes the problem(s).

Are you sure you don't have set umask to something unreasonable or chmod'ed texmf-update? Because I get the permissions 0755 on texmf-update in a clean install. What are the permissions on your texmf-update if you remove it and then re-emerges tetex? I.e., rm /usr/sbin/texmf-update emerge tetex
No, look, I already stated that my umask for root is 0077. The texmf-update script needs to explicitly chmod 0644 /etc/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf.
(In reply to comment #7) > No, look, I already stated that my umask for root is 0077. Erm, while hacking the default umask, it's your task to pick up the pieces (and there will be a lot of them). ;) No bug here, closing INVALID.
If you say so. I've been using Gentoo with this root umask 0077 for over a year now, and I have installed a lot of ebuilds, and there have never been any permissions problems. All of the ebuilds I've seen explicitly set the permissions on any files they create, as they should.
