I am trying to run the following code through XeLaTeX, using the -shell-escape option:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{minted}
\begin{document}
\end{document}
The file is named guess.tex and the error I get is:
! Package catchfile Error: File `guess.w18' not found.
See the catchfile package documentation for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.
...
l.93 \CatchFileDef\@tempa{\ip@file}{}
If I remove \usepackage{minted} it runs fine.
I am using ubuntu 14.04 and I have tried this both with the texlive version in the ubuntu repositories and with texlive 2014 (through the net installer). My version of pygments is 2.0.2.
