Okay. Found the problem, but the solution doesn't work.
I copied texindy.pl into /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/ where its
perms are
755.
In /usr/bin/ I deleted texindy and created a soft-link to
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texindy.pl. The /usr/bin/ version has
perms:
/usr/local/bin makes more sense to me
# ll texindy
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Dec 2 11:41 texindy ->
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texindy.pl
When I try to run the script (as a user) the response is:
$ texindy biota-to-set-wq-standards.idx
-bash: /usr/bin/texindy: Permission denied
This puzzles me as /usr/bin/texindy is a link with 777 perms.
Are you really sure, that there is no other copy in your system?
which -a texindy
what happens if you run
/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texindy.pl biota-to-set-wq-standards.idx
and
/usr/bin/texindy biota-to-set-wq-standards.idx
However, official reinstalling should fix the permission problem:
sudo apt-get --reinstall install xindy
