JadeTeX for Debian
------------------

Sometimes problems occur with the installation of teTeX, and these
problems only manifest during the installation of the jadetex package.
The JadeTeX package tries to be as flexible as possible in dealing
with these problems.  However, during certain upgrade paths, cases
have been reported where the only way to fix the problem was to
actually purge the tetex and jadetex packages, then reinstall them (a
clean slate).

To use jadetex, you just do:

  > jade -t tex <SGML_FILE>

Which produces `basename <SGMLFILE>`.tex, a.k.a., <SGML_TEX_FILE>, and then:

  > jadetex <SGML_TEX_FILE>

An excellent paper on Jadetex can be found at
<URL:http://www.tug.org/applications/jadetex/isug/isug.html>.

You can create the memory dump files jadetex.fmt and pdfjadetex.fmt by
running `fmtutil --cnffile /etc/texmf/jadetex/fmtutil.cnf --all' as
root. This is done automatically during the installation process of
this package.

If running jadetex gives you 'capacity exceeded' messages, please
check out /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf.  The jadetex maintainer has worked
with the teTeX maintainer to ensure that the settings that teTeX ships
with generally work with JadeTeX.  Yet you may have opted to *not*
install the newer versions of texmf.cnf with the expanded, so look at
that file and compare it with /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf.dpkg-dist .  You
should have lines such as these near the bottom:

% Settings for Debian jadetex
  hash_extra.jadetex  = 15000
  hash_extra.pdfjadetex  = 15000
  ...

If you *do* have the settings for the distributed texmf.cnf files
already in place, but are still receiving capacity exceeded messages,
the best I can tell you is to note from the error message which
setting is too small, and increase it.  I'd be curious to be notified
if you do have to do this, since other users may also benefit from the
expanded sizes.
