After upgrading to app-text/texlive-2013 and friends with nice -19 emerge -auv1 --changed-use -j4 --keep-going \ `qlist -IC dev-tex/` `qlist -IC app-text/tex` eplain (pdftex) cannot generate some fonts: eplain Sudoku.tex This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.5-1.40.14 (TeX Live 2013) restricted \write18 enabled. entering extended mode (./Sudoku.tex Babel <3.9f> and hyphenation patterns for loaded.

What can I do to fix this? AFAIR I haven't modified any files in texlive-2012 and the same file could be processed just fine with 2012. From http://tug.org/texinfohtml/kpathsea.html#Unable-to-generate-fonts 2.6.5.3 Unable to generate fonts Metafont outputs fonts in bitmap format, tuned for a particular device at a particular resolution, in order to allow for the highest-possible quality of output. Some DVI-to-whatever programs, such as Dvips, try to generate these on the fly when they are needed, but this generation may fail in several cases. If mktexpk runs, but fails with this error: mktexpk: Can't guess mode for nnn dpi devices. mktexpk: Use a config file to specify the mode, or update me. you need to ensure the resolution and mode match; just specifying the resolution, as in -D 360, is not enough. You can specify the mode name with the -mode option on the Dvips command line, or in a Dvips configuration file (see Config files), such as config.ps in your document directory, ~/.dvipsrc in your home directory, or in a system directory (again named config.ps). (Other drivers use other files, naturally.) For example, if you need 360dpi fonts, you could include this in a configuration file: D 360 M lqmed If Metafont runs, but generates fonts at the wrong resolution or for the wrong device, most likely mktexpk's built-in guess for the mode is wrong, and you should override it as above. emerge --info app-text/texlive Portage 2.2.0_alpha194_p2 (default/linux/amd64/13.0/desktop, gcc-4.7.3, glibc-2.17,

I have run updmap-sys which shows updmap is using the following updmap.cfg files (in precedence order): /etc/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg updmap is using the following updmap.cfg file for writing changes: //etc/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg dvips output dir: "//var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/updmap" pdftex output dir: "//var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap" dvipdfmx output dir: "//var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/dvipdfmx/updmap" pxdvi output dir: "//var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/pxdvi/updmap" updmap: generated map uptex-noEmbed.map (from uptex-@kanjiEmbed@@kanjiVariant@.map) does not exists, not activating it! updmap: generated map otf-noEmbed.map (from otf-@kanjiEmbed@.map) does not exists, not activating it! updmap: generated map otf-up-noEmbed.map (from otf-up-@kanjiEmbed@.map) does not exists, not activating it! updmap: generated map ptex-noEmbed.map (from ptex-@kanjiEmbed@@kanjiVariant@.map) does not exists, not activating it! ERROR: The following map file(s) couldn't be found: morisawa.map (in /etc/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg) otf-cktx.map (in /etc/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg) Did you run mktexlsr? You can disable non-existent map entries using the option --syncwithtrees. It doesn't change /var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex_dl14.map which is symlinked to /var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map and it doesn't fix the problem. I have also run mktexlsr and updmap-sys --syncwithtrees, but this didn't help either. Many thanks, Helmut. P.S. I have discovered that texlive2013 (and friends) works just fine on a different but very similar Gentoo machine. I'll have to compare these two machines step by step to locate the problem.
