After upgrade from texlive-2008 to 2009 epstopdf.pl is missing. Other installations of texlive2009, which i have no control over, still has epstopdf so it's not removed upstreams. In fact, I have done "ebuild /usr/portage/app-text/texlive-core/texlive-core-2009-r1.ebuild unpack" and can see that the file is still in the distribution but i can't figure out why it's not installed. I cannot see any build flags that disables or enables it. I'm stumped... I guess there is always the ruby epspdf instead but i am more comfortable with epstopdf.

Found another bug-report from arch-linux about this. http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/17844
My mistake, it was in texlive-fontutils, but I still cannot see any reason why it didn't install automatically with texlive-core
As it is, texlive-core-2009-r1 installs a dangling symlink /usr/bin/repstopdf -> epstopdf. Should texlive-core either *not* install this symlink, or PDEPEND on texlive-fontutils?
I confirm that package app-text/texlive-core-2012 installs a broken symlink in /usr/bin/repstopdf that points to missing epstopdf. equery files =app-text/texlive-core-2012 | grep repstopdf /usr/bin/repstopdf ls -l /usr/bin/repstopdf /usr/bin/epstopdf ls: cannot access /usr/bin/epstopdf: No such file or directory lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Oct 6 06:48 /usr/bin/repstopdf -> epstopdf
