../../texmf-dist/, ../../texmf-local/, and ../../texmf-var/. Copied the latest beamer version to ../../texmf-dist/tex/latex/beamer/.
The recommended and most easy way would have been to simply update to the newest texlive from SBo. Is beamer coming with texlive really too old([2017/08/22 v3.43)? If you update texlive, it will be overridden again.
If you really want a special beamer version, put it in TEXMFHOME kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFHOME Johannes _______________________________________________ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/
