look into /etc/texmf/ I would setup the PATH (TEXINPUTS) in /etc/profile if it is system wide installation. The same for BSTINPUT When I started using LaTeX it took a few years to become a mature user, so be patient ... and start reading docs please. I agree that there is a lot of info and some of it is cryptic, but please do your homework. You could also ask someone experienced around you to set it up and buy a beer or so ... At least my sister did so ... :-) Well in my case it was a cocktail that I got :-) A good starting point is http://www.ctan.org/ If you are planning to work a lot with LaTeX then I suggest you create a dedicated setup for this ... i.e. in a virtual machine, so you don't mess up with the system after configuration. After it is working you should NEVER touch it ... people nowdays are doing silly updates ... and then complain :-) I would help better if I could regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
