Which build script?

Paul,

This is a new installation of the OS on the laptop. There is no TeXLive2023
anywhere. And the only reference to texlive is the TEXLIVEPATH in
~/.bash_profile. I've no idea where `echo $PATH' could find a texlive/2023/
directory since none exists.

Sigh. Thanks,

Tobias,

`which' doesn't find it, but find did, in my path:
$ echo $PATH
/home/rshepard/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/texlive/2023/bin/x86_64-linux:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib64/libexec/kf5:/usr/lib64/qt5/bin

It's in the third entry because in ~/.bash_profile I specified
TEXLIVEPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2024/bin/x86_64-linux:$PATH

Wonder why lyx isn't finding it.

Thanks,

Rich

Rich,

check if biber is found, at the command line like this:
$ which biberĀ 
$ /home/tobias/.local/bin/biber
If it is not installed, install, e. g.
$ tlmgr install biber
If it is installed but not found you have to place it in $PATH:
$ echo $PATH
shows possible folders.

Hope it helps
Tobias

Builing 2.4.0~RC4

2024-03-28 Thread Rich Shepard

I downloaded lyx-2.4.0~RC4.tar.xz. That name is not accepted when the build
script wants to crate a /tmp/ directory. Changing the file name to match
what the build script says it's looking for also fails because the console
displaying progress shows the version as above.

Suggestions?

LyX-3.2.7.1 not finding biber

2024-03-28 Thread Rich Shepard

I installed LyX-2.3.7.1 and JabRef-5.12 on my laptop running
Slackware64-15.0. When I try to compile a document using pdflatex LyX tells
me that the bibliography processor (biber) is not available (see attached.)

How to I make biber available in 2.3.7.1?

TIA,

Rich
