[tex-live] [MetaPost] truncated map file

[Mojca Miklavec]

With the example you posted and using mptopdf (because mpost alone
doesn't work here) I get:

mojca [21:54] /tmp> mptopdf a
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592-1.40.1 (Web2C 7.5.6)
 \write18 enabled.
entering extended mode
[MP to PDF] (./a.1

pdfTeX warning: pdftex (file pdftex.map): cannot open font map file
) [warning: the width is less than 1in] [warning: the height is less than 1in]
[1]

pdfTeX warning: pdftex (file cmr10): Font cmr10 at 72 not found
Output written on a.pdf (1 page, 1393 bytes).
Transcript written on a.log.

MPtoPDF 1.3.3 : a.* is converted to a-1.pdf

(mpost alone is not working since I have no format for it and didn't
bother installing it yet - using standalone ConTeXt distribution on
Mac, MetaPost 0.993)


With gwTeX I get:

mojca [21:58] /tmp> mptopdf a

With standalone ConTeXt & -mem=metafun option I get

mojca [21:58] /tmp> mpost -mem=metafun a

etc.

Apparently it's not only MikTeX's problem. Just in case that logs help
you ... I don't understand very well what's going on behind the
scenes.
