Hello Armin, That may be what it is meant to do, ie if libkpathsea is not found, it should assume --disable-dvi, but that certainly is not what it is doing. Without telling it to explicitly disable dvi it instead throws a fatal error. I have added the teXlive include to the extrapaths.sh file, and sourced /etc/profile and get the exact same error. root [ /sources/gnomedesktop/evince-3.34.1 ]# echo $PATH /opt/rustc/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/ant/bin:/opt/texlive/2019/bin/x86_64-linux:/opt/texlive/2019/include:/opt/fop:/opt/kf5/bin:/opt/jdk/bin:/opt/qt5/bin And the contents of /opt/texlive/2019/include/kapthsea is: root [ /sources/gnomedesktop/evince-3.34.1 ]# ls /opt/texlive/2019/include/kpathsea/ absolute.h c-ctype.h c-errno.h c-limits.h c-minmax.h cnf.h config.h c-pathmx.h c-stat.h c-unistd.h expand.h hash.h kpathsea.h line.h mingw32.h paths.h progname.h simpletypes.h str-llist.h tex-file.h tex-hush.h types.h version.h c-auto.h c-dir.h c-fopen.h c-memstr.h c-namemx.h concatn.h c-pathch.h c-proto.h c-std.h debug.h getopt.h knj.h lib.h magstep.h pathsearch.h proginit.h readable.h str-list.h systypes.h tex-glyph.h tex-make.h variable.h win32lib.h Regards, Christopher. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
