mktexpk can't find my fonts anymore!

[Jody Klymak]

Hi Fabrice,

Well, I reloaded texmf.cnf out of
ftp://ftp.ese-metz.fr/pub/TeX/win32-beta/fptex-0.2-bin1.zip
and, as I suspected, I hadn't changed it.  My tex-related environmental
variables is:

TEXMF d:/users/jklymak/texmf//;c:/TeX/{texmf.local,texmf}//;

plus the appropriate PATH additions.  I removed the PK files.  I still get:

****************************************************************************

This is METAFONT, Version 2.7182 (Web2c 7.2)

Next time running windvi:  
*****************************************************************************

kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 600 --mag magstep\(0.5\) --dpi 657

mktexpk: c:/TeX/texmf//fonts/tfm/public/cm///cmsy10.657pk already exists.

*****************************************************************************
So it is still getting put in the wrong place. 

Like I say, not a big deal.  Everything else works great.  Just one of those
details...

Cheers,  Jody
