[tex-live] Update problem after installing pythontex

[Herbert Voss]

Is this a problem on my side or derver side?

voss at shania:~> tlmgr update --self --all
Unknown docfile tag:
texmf-dist/doc/latex/pythontex/pythontex_quickstart.pdf details=""Quick
start" documentation" at /usr/local/texlive/2013/tlpkg/TeXLive/TLPOBJ.pm
line 127, <$retfh> line 155550.

I looked into my tlpkg directory and deleted the double quotes
in the file texlive.tlpdb but I always get the same when running
tlmgr

You need to
* get the update-tlmgr-latest.sh or .exe from
http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/
and run it.

thanks. In the meanwhile I deleted the pythontex files from
the tlpkg/tlpobj directory and run again

tlmgr update --self --all

and that also works. tlmgr was updated and the pythontex files
installed again.

My own experience shows that eliminating double quotes is not enough as
according to Norbert

PS Simply eliminating nested quotation did not worked

Yes indeed ... didn't think of that ... the remote tlpdb still carries
the special quoting, as the new code works with it.

To quote Norbert in his posting 2 days ago:
* get the update-tlmgr-latest.sh or .exe from
http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/
and run it. After that further tlmgr invocations should succeed.

For me this worked.

(Make sure that the version is new (from september)).

Did not work here. I got the error (run as superuser):
"./update-tlmgr-latest.sh: 1: eval: ./runme.sh: Permission denied".

May I ask, please, any advise to proceed?

Dp a normal
tlmgr update --self --all
that should work again.

I just updated my texlive installation and the process ended with the
following error message:

----
running mktexlsr ...
done running mktexlsr.
running mtxrun --generate ...

Use of uninitialized value $out in concatenation (.) or string at
/usr/local/bin/tlmgr line 653.
mtxrun --generate failed (status -1), output:

tlmgr: exiting unsuccessfully (status 1).
----

I am unable to identify the origin of this issue to fix it and I would
appreciate an advise to proceed.

Hi Jose,

mtxrun --generate failed (status -1), output:

If mtxrun doesn't output anything about why it's exiting unsuccessfully,
well, tlmgr can't guess what to tell you, and I cannot guess the origin
of the problem either. You could run mtxrun --generate by hand (from
the shell) and see what happens. Or, unless you use ConTeXt (which I'm
guessing you don't, or you'd already know what was going on), it doesn't
matter and you can just forget about it.

Use of uninitialized value $out in concatenation (.) or string at
/usr/local/bin/tlmgr line 653.

That's an unimportant warning not relevant to whatever the actual
problem is. (I fixed it for a future release.)

Best,
Karl
