 Upgraded to TL 2011, attempted to build a PDF from a long-standing LaTeX
 document and got the following:

 {{{
 % latex Conference1
 [ ...etc... ]
 % dvipdf Conference1
 dvips: ! Couldn't find header file: cork.enc
 }}}

 (I’m using the latex/dvipdf route for this document because it uses
 PSTricks, but that has nothing to do with the problem. I can reproduce the
 problem with any LaTeX document simply by using latex/dvipdf.)

 cork.enc doesn’t appear to exist in any texmf tree. Weirdly, however, as
 far as I can tell cork.enc wasn’t in TL 2010 either, yet the document
 builds fine under TL 2010 (and incidentally also did so under TL 2007 and
 2009), so something has clearly changed somewhere. If cork.enc was to
 appear anywhere, it should presumably be in texmf-texlive-
 dist/fonts/enc/dvips/base.

 The only thing I could find that explicitly mentions cork.enc is the xdvi
 config in texmf-texlive/xdvi, but this doesn’t appear to be significantly
 different from TL 2010, and is for xdvi, not dvips, so I think that’s
 probably not the cause.

 I grabbed a copy of cork.enc from the catdvi distribution (the most recent
 version of it I could find, from http://www.ctan.org/pkg/catdvi) and
 dropped it into my personal texmf tree. This appears to have universally
 fixed the problem.

 Let me know if there’s any other information you need.
