To David and Rainer,
To continue the saga I renamed my texlive folder in /usr/local to
oldtexlive and now get :
john@john-K53U:~$ texlive --version
texlive: command not found
john@john-K53U:~$ tlmgr --version
No command 'tlmgr' found, did you mean:
Command 'vlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe)
Command 'rlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe)
tlmgr: command not found
john@john-K53U:~$ which latex
/usr/bin/latex
Interestingly enough when I do a ls in /bin I no longer seem to see
anything called latex
Did you before? I didn't notice that. My latex executable is
/usr/bin/latex.
However much to my surprise LyX is still running happily and the tex
information shows
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/akletter/akletter.cls
so it looks like LyX has found something, presumabley ver.2012 since
the old path was usr/local/texlive2011.
Right. What happened was that the system (not Lyx itself, probably) now
found the "right" latex, and that gives the paths to support files like
that.
Now, presumably I can reinstall a version of tlmgr and have another go
at installing leadpar. Or should I expect it to have installed
automatically with ver. 2012?
Maybe not. I have neither tlmgr nor leadpar in my TeXlive 2012.
