Bug Description
Ubuntu 8.10
Bug in texlive-latex-base (2007.dfsg.1-2) or maybe texlive-
<ERROR MSG FROM LaTeX>

This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.6)

<END OF ERROR MSG>
Problem was solved when I installed texlive (2007.dfsg.1-2). I guess that the problem can be solved by adding missing parts to the LaTeX packages above.
