I've come across a problem accessing documentation with MacTeX 2007.
I've not moved any of the standard installed components: everything is
where it was installed (G4 iMac, 10.4.11).
texdoc beamer in Terminal.app opens the following file in Firefox.app:
file://localhost/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-doc/doc/english/catalogue/
entries/beamer.html
If I click on Documentation->Read documentation for this package from:
bearmeruserguide.pdf, I get this message:
Firefox can't find the file at
/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-doc/doc/macros/latex/contrib/beamer/.
/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-doc/doc/ exists, but contains no macros/
directory; it contains directories named after languages from bulgarian
to vietnamese.
The beamer documentation exists at this location:
/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/doc/latex/beamer/doc/beameruserguide.
pdf
Anyone got any thoughts?
Rowland.
