Re: LyX-3.2.7.1 not finding biber

Paul, Working off the mail list with Herbert I think I just found the problem, but not yet the solution. I used the same command, `perl ./install-tl --no-interaction --paper=letter' on both the Slackware64-14.2 desktop and the Slackware64-15.0 laptop. On the former, all files are in /usr/local/texlive/2024; on laptop, some/many/most files are in /usr/share/texlive/2024. The latter is apparently the Debian default. Why two different installations using the same command line installed differently might well be the reason I have the missing files errors.

TIA, Rich Rich, First, try "kpsewhich biblatex.sty" in a terminal to confirm that TeXLive knows where to find it. If the return is empty, there's a setup problem with TeXLive. Second, try "which biber" in a terminal to confirm that biber is on your system path. If not, you may need to modify your system path (or change how biber is installed). FWIW, on my system the texlive tree is under /usr/share rather than /usr/local (and kpsewhich finds biblatex.sty) and biber is in /usr/bin (which is of course on my system path).
