One more addition. We never found this in our tests because we always
tried upgrading from etch where jadetex was upgraded at the same time,
so the .cnf file was not included in the texlive-base-bin.postinst
fmtutil-sys --all run.
So AFAIS the only solution to this is that we go back to the hack of NOT
preloading the latex format, but including the stuff in the .ini files.
Because jadetex depends on texlive-latex-base we can be sure that the
respective files are already installed on the system.
But then - Frank - what about files loaded from latex.ini which no
reside in /etc/texmf which still have the "new" suffix ... what do you
think?
Best wishes
Norbert
