[tex-live] Number of binaries, and another build error

[Norbert Preining]

Hi all!

How many binaries should finally end up in .../inst/$arch/bin? I did get
126 binaries:

What puzzles me is that the build process is really messed up at the
end, as it asks for texi2dvi/tex:
make[2]: Entering directory `/texlive-src/Build/source/Work/texk/dvipng'
./mkinstalldirs /texlive-src/Build/source/inst/bin/alphapca56-unknown-linux-gnu
make[2]: ./mkinstalldirs: Command not found
make[2]: [install-dvipng] Error 127 (ignored)

First strange thing, there is no ./mkinstalldirs, seems a bit strange

/usr/bin/install -c dvipng /texlive-src/Build/source/inst/bin/alphapca56-unknown
-linux-gnu
texi2dvi -I ../../../texk/dvipng ../../../texk/dvipng/dvipng.texi
This is TeX, Version 3.141592 (Web2C 7.5.5)
I can't find the format file `tex.fmt'!

Uhh. What the hell ...

kpathsea: Running mktexfmt tex.fmt
mktexfmt: No such file or directory
/texlive-src/Build/source/inst/bin/alphapca56-unknown-linux-gnu/texi2dvi: texinf
o.tex appears to be broken, quitting.

Yes, so it is, definitely.

make[2]: [dvipng.dvi] Error 1 (ignored)

Ok, so that is what my questions come from!?! Do I have all the binaries 
now installed, or did the install process terminate too early to get all
binaries installed?

Thanks for any comments

(PS Why did this happen: I have a chroot environment with minimal packages
installed, ie no TeX system, no nothing at all, only the necessary
devel packages)


Best wishes

Norbert
