I get these errors when I try to use xelatex:

?
! Emergency stop.
l.573 ...LaTeX source files more than 1 year old!}

No pages of output.
Transcript written on xelatex.log.' instead of a filename.
I can't find the format file `xelatex.xfmt'!

I could not find xelatex.xfmt so re-ran the installer. This is from the 
i-installer:

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
! You are attempting to make a LaTeX format from a source file
! That is more than one year old.
!
! If you enter <return> to scroll past this message then the format
! will be built, but please consider obtaining newer source files
! before continuing to build LaTeX.
!
! LaTeX is re-issued every 6 months, in June and December.

l.573 ...LaTeX source files more than 1 year old!}

No pages of output.
Transcript written on xelatex.log.
### xetex.configure: Rebuilding the local tree TeX search index 
(again). Please wait....
### xetex.configure: Finished.


I'm afraid this is more than a little over my head -- what is the next 
step?
