2012-05-23 Thread Marco Pessotto
Going ahead with the TeXlive testing, I found the following problem. Probably I'm doing something wrong, but as far as I can see, the texmf-local directory is ignored. Best wishes. [09:35] melmoth@universe:~/progetti/debug$ which context /home/melmoth/progetti/texlive2012/bin/i386-linux/context
