Re: running latex generates "Bad address" error message

Hi,

When I run the command "latex" on the command line, without any command
line arguments, I get the following message:

-bash: /usr/bin/latex: Bad address

courtesy of MS$. Cygwin uses the system loader.

Read my post from 2 minutes ago: Install libpoppler26.


But can somebody tell me, why cygwin prints Bad address? Also, is ldd /usr/bin/pdftex.exe broken since it didn't print any information about missing libraries when cygpoppler-26.dll didn't exist on my system? Only by accident, I tried "strace pdftex" and a nice windows popped up informing me about the lack of cygpoppler-26.dll on my system.


Regards, Sven

the correct way is


$ cygcheck /usr/bin/pdftex.exe
[cut]
cygcheck: track_down: could not find cygpoppler-26.dll

Regards
Marco
