dvipng: Installation outside the texmf tree

 
 2.4 Installation outside the texmf tree
 =======================================
 
 In some cases, a dvipng binary installed outside the texmf tree will not
 be able to find virtual fonts, or the PostScript font maps (normally
 used by dvips).  This may be because _only_ $SELFAUTOLOC, $SELFAUTODIR,
 and $SELFAUTOPARENT are used in the texmf tree configuration file
 'texmf.cnf'.  If so, give the switch '--enable-selfauto-set' to
 './configure'.  This will make dvipng adjust these three internally so
 that kpathsea thinks that dvipng _is_ installed in the texmf tree.
