[OS X TeX] /private/var/root/Library/texmf

[McGarry Vince]

Hi all,

These folders exist on my disc and I believe the "which hopefully  
does not exist" in this message fro GW in October:

> New: the TeX i-Package configures as user root using updmap-sys.  
> Hence it does read ~root/Library/texmf (which hopefully does not  
> exist) and it writes in texmf.local. This makes configuring with

refers to the fact that these files shouldn't exist. (This assumes a  
typo, "~root/Library/texmf," in GW's message.) If they shouldn't  
exist, how does one expunge them?
