through ok. maybe it's more sensitive here as i always do "svn co" and
then a pristine full re-install via non-gui install.tl after moving the
Personally, I just run directly out of svn. Why bother to install at
all :)?
a few hours or a day later after an "svn co" it installed ok
again, and i guessed it's since somebody had added a missing file to
some package.
No, I think it's because I only regenerate tlpdb once a day
(routinely). Therefore when an update deletes a file, the tlpdb in svn
does not match the files in svn.
It would be way too time-consuming to regenerate tlpdb on every
update. As you say, can just redo a while later.
Anyway, I'll think about making that die into a warn+return.
Thanks,
