What does "kpsepath tex" print? in my .zshrc I set TEXINPUTS=~/Texte/Styles//:.//: export TEXINPUTS and "$ kpsepath tex" yields /home/michler/Texte/Styles//:.//:.:/home/michler/.texmf-config/tex/kpsewhich//:/home/michler/.texmf-var/tex/kpsewhich//:/home/michler/texmf/tex/kpsewhich//:/etc/texmf/tex/kpsewhich//:!!/var/lib/texmf/tex/kpsewhich//:!!/usr/local/share/texmf/tex/kpsewhich//:!!/usr/share/texmf/tex/kpsewhich//:!!/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/kpsewhich//:/home/michler/.texmf-config/tex/generic//:/home/michler/.texmf-var/tex/generic//:/home/michler/texmf/tex/generic//:/etc/texmf/tex/generic//:!!/var/lib/texmf/tex/generic//:!!/usr/local/share/texmf/tex/generic//:!!/usr/share/texmf/tex/generic//:!!/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/generic//:/home/michler/.texmf-config/tex///:/home/michler/.texmf-var/tex///:/home/michler/texmf/tex///:/etc/texmf/tex///:!!/var/lib/texmf/tex///:!!/usr/local/share/texmf/tex///:!!/usr/share/texmf/tex///:!!/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/// Furthermore I did (as root): $ cd /root $ cd /lost+found/ and $ cd /tmp/ and $ ls **/*tex **/*.cls but always got ls: cannot access **/*tex: No such file or directory ls: cannot access **/*.cls: No such file or directory ... That means there are no tex or cls-files. Do you have any idea what's wrong?
