Hi! I've just upgraded from ubuntu 8.04 LTS to 10.04 LTS.
During the installation I received the error message that tex-common could not be installed. After searching the forum and bugs, I found these
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tex-common/+bug/580881
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-base/+bug/228334
talking about dependencies issues, with the solution to first install texlive-base. I have now tried to remove all tex packages completely and reinstall them, starting with texlive-base, but I keep getting the same error.
"Running updmap-sys. This may take some time...
updmap-sys failed. Output has been stored in
/tmp/updmap.mRqqSyLA
Please include this file if you report a bug."
Looking in that file it says
"updmap: Scanning for Map entries:
updmap: using map file `/usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/map/dvips/amsfonts/euler.map'
updmap: using map file `/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/lm/lm-cs.map'
!!! ERROR! The map file `mt-plus.map' has not been found at all.
Either put this file into the right place or remove the
reference from the configuration files - see
update-updmap(1)."
What do I do now? Please help! I'm rather new at this, and certainly no expert on Linux...
Can I find this map file somewhere and put it in its right place manually, or is there some other swift and magic Linux command that you experts know of that could try?
Thanks!
