Hans,
The latest ctxtools.rb has:
def locatedlocaltree
tree = `kpsewhich --expand-path $TEXMFLOCAL`.chomp rescue
nil
unless tree && FileTest.directory?(tree) then
tree = `kpsewhich --expand-path $TEXMF`.chomp rescue
nil
end
return tree
end
I know the Windows/Unix quoting isn't sorted out, but another problem
is with --expand-path. If the
kpsewhich --expand-path $TEXMF
line would get run here (with '$TEXMF'), it would produce
/home/sanjoy/.texmf-config:/home/sanjoy/.texmf-var:/home/sanjoy/texmf:/etc/texmf:/var/lib/texmf:/usr/local/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf-tetex
which would eventually become the argument of an unhappy Dir.chdir().
Should localtedlocaltree() extract the first component before doing
'return tree'?
