Interesting: $ kpsewhich --progname latex --expand-path '$SYSTEXMF;$TEXMFLOCAL' /var/lib/texmf:/usr/local/share/texmf:/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist $ kpsewhich --progname latex --expand-path '$SYSTEXMF' /var/lib/texmf:/usr/local/share/texmf:/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist:/usr/share/texmf $ kpsewhich --progname latex --expand-path '$TEXMFLOCAL' /usr/local/share/texmf I have no idea what this signifies, to be honest.
