When PATH is
PATH=/usr/local/teTeX/bin/linxu:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/rhs/bin:/usr/local/bin:/root/bin:/root/bin
siwenna# env KPATHSEA_DEBUG=4 kpsewhich -expand-var='$TEXMFMAIN'
kdebug:fopen(/usr/local/teTeX/bin/linxu/kpsewhich, r) => 0x8057ed8
kdebug:fclose(0x8057ed8) => 0
kdebug:fopen(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf, r) =>
0x80599a8
kdebug:fclose(0x80599a8) => 0
kdebug:fopen(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf, r) =>
0x80599a8
kdebug:fclose(0x80599a8) => 0
kdebug:fopen(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf, r) =>
0x80599a8
kdebug:fclose(0x80599a8) => 0
kdebug:fopen(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/ls-R, r) => 0x806ffe8
kdebug:fclose(0x806ffe8) => 0
kdebug:fopen(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/aliases, r) => 0x80c7910
kdebug:fclose(0x80c7910) => 0
But when it is
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/rhs/bin:/usr/local/bin:/root/bin:/root/bin
siwenna# env KPATHSEA_DEBUG=4 kpsewhich -expand-var='$TEXMFMAIN'
kdebug:fopen(/usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/kpsewhich, r) =>
0x8057ef0
kdebug:fclose(0x8057ef0) => 0
kdebug:fopen(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf, r) =>
0x8059bc8
kdebug:fclose(0x8059bc8) => 0
kdebug:fopen(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf, r) =>
0x8059bc8
kdebug:fclose(0x8059bc8) => 0
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc/share/texmf
So something funny happens. I installed the teTeX to a clean directory
/usr/local/teTeX, so there should be no previous files that mix up.
