Do you have any different of an experience today compared to 2003? My screenshots were from today and I don't see any difference.

I haven't used latex in a while (mostly writing in markdown these days), so haven't tried it in a while.

I have some .dvi files lying around from 2009, but trying to open them with evince results in

kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 600 --mag 1+0/600 --dpi 600 aebx12 mktexpk: No such file or directory

and 'apt search mktexpk' doesn't find anything.

So, can't open DVIs anymore, it seems :(

I think it's part of texlive-binaries (apt-file search mktexpk).
