Hello,
I just discovered, that on Windows (Vista in this case) the name of
the file texmf-dist/tex/generic/pgf/frontendlayer/tikz/libraries/
tikzlibrarydecorations.pathmorphing.code.tex is truncated by one
character, leaving it as tikzlibrarydecorations.pathmorphing.code.te
As a consequence it cannot be found by the tikz/pgf package. Renaming
the file and rebuilding the index fixes the issue. I guess this is a
problem with some container file format that cannot handle filenames
this long, somewhere in the process of distribution.
Can you reproduce the problem I have? I also use MacTex 2008 and I did
not encounter this problem there.
I am not subscribed to this list, so please Cc: me in your replies.
