Either this sentence or your last sentence I am citing is a lie.  
Which one is it? And why did you destroy your working TeX system?  
Can't you use Time Machine to restore the working setup?


/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local is the proper branch to install local  
additions. After you've added something or you've renamed something,  
it is necessary to run

	sudo texhash

When you move MAP file fragments around it is recommended (usually  
one isn't updating the MAP files every day or hour) to run

	sudo updmap-sys --syncwithtrees

afterwards. And if the MAP fragments in the personal TeX are changed,  
then it's recommended to also run

	updmap --syncwithtrees

Is the MAP file fragment really Minion.map with a capital M? Or is it  
MinionPro.map?


The directory /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/fonts should have at  
least these directories:

	drwxr-xr-x    3 root  wheel   102  3 Mär  2007 map
	drwxr-xr-x   61 root  wheel  2074 30 Jun  2007 tfm
	drwxr-xr-x   10 root  wheel   340 30 Jun  2007 type1
	drwxr-xr-x   11 root  wheel   374 30 Jun  2007 vf

MAP file fragments belong in /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/fonts/map/ 
dvips into a sub-directory "MinionPro" or such, that gives a hint to  
which package or font family these MAP file fragments belong.

The same name should be used in /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/fonts/ 
tfm to receive the TFM files, in /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/fonts/ 
type1 to receive the PostScript Type 1 font files, in /usr/local/ 
texlive/texmf-local/fonts/vf to receive the VF files.

According to the saved output file from 'kpsewhich -debug 8 MinionPro- 
Regular-Base-ab.tfm' from earlier today the tree /usr/local/texlive/ 
2007/../texmf-local/fonts/tfm is not searched but looked up from its  
ls-R hash file for TFM files. (The private tree /Users/Matthew/ 
Library/texmf/fonts/tfm is really searched.) MAP file fragments in  
the /usr/local/texlive/2007/../texmf-local/fonts/map tree are are  
looked up too. (The private tree /Users/Matthew/Library/texmf/fonts/ 
mapm is really searched.) The notation ``..´´ in a pathname stands  
for "one directory level higher" or, in our case, ``2007/..´´ is  
substituted with nothing or ``/usr/local/texlive/2007/../texmf-local 
´´ is substituted with ``/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local´´. So  
kpsewhich is working fine and obviously the particles of the  
MinionPro package are (were) not correctly installed. Proof: they  
were not found in their proper places according to the TeX  
configuration file.
