Hi Anders,

The fix for ed is fine. it's another issue introduced in lucid. The problem is only with tcfmgr that is not installed when you install only texlive-binaries.

I think that's a regression introduced in lucid because in karmic tcfmgr was shipped in texlive-base-bin together with texconfig and other binaries. Since lucid they are shipped separately and texlive-base is not necessarily installed but fmtutil, texconfig, updmap and mktexfmt (in texlive-binaries) use it.

Anyway, I verified the ed fix in maverick and lucid and it's okay.

Thanks.
