Hi Ian,
the initial fmtutil run tries to build the related
formats, and fails *silently*
For the record, I just committed (r78652) some changes to install-tl and
related so that if a post-installation command (fmtutil-sys, updmap-sys)
fails, install-tl will be rather noisy about it.
Also, I added a -strict option to install-tl which will make it abort
right away. The default is still -no-strict, to avoid unnecessary
re-downloading of gigabytes.
Hope this works out ok for the future. In any case, thanks for the reports. -k
