What's undisputably undocumented (or misdocumented) is the fact that kpsewhich and kpsewhere do not find the same file (as first hit). Is this a texlive or ubuntu issue? I see that kpseawhere(1) indicates that it belongs to tetex, but I thought I had avoided all tetex-specific packages. > > The previous setup had worked for years with tetex under previous > > Ubuntu releases, other linux distroes and solaris. > > Well, they probably had a different texmf.cnf. Thanks for that. Now I finally managed to find the second variable which controls the use of ls-R. That was far from easy to understand from the comments in texmf.cnf. Now it works, thanks for your help. :-- George -- latex: multiple texmf.cnf files do not work correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186164 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
