Unless you use --prefix=/usr or your system readlink is in some non standard location this is unlikely if you make a default build of teTeX. E.g. Fedora Core 1: > whereis readlink readlink: /usr/bin/readlink /usr/share/man/man1/readlink.1.gz /usr/share/man/man2/readlink.2.gz > rpm -qf /usr/bin/readlink coreutils-5.0-34.1 ls -l /usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/readlink -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 22355 May 14 15:54 /usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/readlink Are you using some packaged version of teTeX possibly "3rd party" with respect to your Linux distribution? You probably need to contact the maintainer of the packaged teTeX you are using. -- João Palhoto Matos http://www.math.ist.utl.pt/~jmatos Departamento de Matemática Instituto Superior Técnico Lisboa mailto:[email protected]
