Hi,
I tried to install powerdot package following the installation advice from
the help menu of lyx.
I am using Mandrake 10.1.
I unzipped the powerdot files into
/usr/local/texmf/tex/latex/powerdot
Then use texhash to udate latex but when I use
kpsewhich tex powerdot.cls it shows no path for the file.
One thing I could not understand (and this could be the source of the
problem) is where to put the lines (as mentioned in the lyx help)
TEXMFLOCAL =/usr/local/texmf
TEXMF = {$HOMETEXMF, !!$TEXMFLOCAL, !!$TEXMFMAIN}
kpsewhich --show-path tex
shows all directories, where TeX will search for files.
is /usr/local/texmf part of it?
