Subject: jadetex problem when buliding pkgsrc guide

I'm trying to build the PDF version of the pkgsrc guide, which seems to take
the steps TeX -> dvi -> PS -> PDF.  The .tex file is created, but then running
jadetex on pkgsrc.tex fails (see below).

I haven't done anything active with TeX in many years, so I'm kinda lost.  Do
I need to add something to /usr/pkg/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf?
/usr/pkg/share/texmf/web2c/jadetex.fmt exists, but fmtutil.cnf does not have a
jadetex entry (and trying the "obvious" insertion of a line that looks similar
to the etex gets me the same errors).

Can someone point me at the right solution?

Thanks,
Mark
