!pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file a_mhce32.enc): cannot open encoding file for reading #203

Closed Vo-Alex closed 3 years ago

Vo-Alex commented 4 years ago

Hello,

I using Eisvogel for a while, and had never encountered any problems but when I wanted to use it on a new installation of my pc under Fedora 33 I encountered the following error message :

Error producing PDF.
!pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file a_mhce32.enc): cannot open encoding file for reading
 ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

I can't find where the problem comes from, especially since texlive-full is installed and everything worked with fedora 32

i hope someone to help me or give me a lead.

I just recently encountered this same issue on Fedora 33, after upgrading from Fedora 32 on Friday. I haven't found a solution that makes the pdflatex backend work as it did before, but xelatex works just fine :)

Maybe try --pdf-engine=xelatex as a workaround for now?

Thank you for your help.

It works fine with xelatex.

Can you give me the link to issue on fedora 33 so i can follow this ?

keeferrourke commented 4 years ago

Uh sorry, poor choice of words! I'm not aware of any bug that's been filed with Fedora about this issue. I just meant that I had the same problem as you :sweat_smile:

This seems like an upstream problem with Fedora 33 and the (bundled?) LaTeX distribution. It might be worth it to remove LaTeX completely and install it again manually. The current .travis.yml is a good starting point for a manual installation that should work on Fedora too (https://github.com/Wandmalfarbe/pandoc-latex-template/blob/master/.travis.yml).
