Hello,

I don't remember changing anything in this respect - HOMETEXMF has
been unchanged from original Hans' distribution.

One real problem is how to set this properly to account for different
platforms (like ~/Library/texmf in the case of Mac).

I agree that this needs to be changed and improved, I just need some
idea how to configure everything properly, so that Mac specifics will
be taken care of, and how to make this compatible with Hans' idea of
"I don't want any other files to interfere". There could be two
"setuptex"s for example, but the main thing needs to be changed inside
texmf.cnf.

I think that adding texmf.cnf to texmf-local and configuring the
settings there should work, but I didn't try.

In short: I know that this has been a problem, I'm just seeking proposals.
