If the file is in TEXMFSYSVAR/web2c (/var/lib/texmf/web2c), it will not be found. If it is in TEXMFMAIN/web2c (/usr/share/texmf/web2c), it will be found because it is erroneously detected as being of format "cnf" (instead of "web2c files"), and cnf files are searched for in TEXMFMAIN/web2c. The only thing I don't know (but would like to) is where the search path for cnf is defined - it doesn't seem to be in the paths.h that's generated at compile time. > Said > differently, is it the "normal behaviour" to run kpsewhich with somme format > option to get the file's path ? Again, the answer is: Yes, maybe unless you are looking for a TeX input file. You can even find LaTeX input files without any options, but to be sure you should set progname.
