[Gerben Wierda]

I am copying the list, because of the useful information embedded in  
this message.

texmf.cnf.tl2004 is not the place to look. The place to look for  
ENCFONTS was mentioned in an earlier post by me.

This report is empty. A eport is most useful to produce after you have  
finished your install.

But something useful is here:

At least you have put stuff in ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist

Don't.

The PATH should look like this:

PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Volumes/Data/Users/gedalin

Your PATH for GUI apps is broken. There is no way for me to predict  
what can go wrong inside TeX administrative tools with a PATH like  
this.

There are many other things that can go wrong on your system with a  
environment setting like this as well.
