Thanks for addressing it. It is no longer an issue, in the sense that I have found a way around it, without really remembering the details how. I think there is an issue with the TEXMFDBS variable in texmf.cnf, and I had to override it to work in the recent Ubuntu's while this was not necessary in the past. :-- George > > ** Changed in: texlive-base (Ubuntu) > Status: New => Incomplete > > -- > latex: user-specific texmf.cnf files do not work as expected > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186164 > You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber > of the bug. > > Status in “texlive-base” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete > > Bug description: > This bug appeared after upgrade to 7.10, and it also exists in a fresh > installation of 8.04 alpha 3. > It works fine in every other latex installation I have every used, including > ubuntu prior to 7.10 and Fedora Core. > On 8.04 a3 I carefully avoided to install tetex-extra, in case the problem > was caused by a conflict between tetex and texlive. > > I have a personal texmf.cnf file which only override selected paths, compared > to the system texmf.cnf. > This no longer seems to work; styles in the local or home directories, as > specified in the local or home texmf.cnf are not found by (pdf)latex. > Oddly, they are found by kpsewhere > $ kpsewhich unislide.sty > $ kpsewhere unislide.sty > /home/georg/share/texmf/tex/latex/hgbeamer/unislide.sty > This behaviour is not consistent with the man pages as far as I can tell. > > To unsubscribe from this bug, go to: > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-base/+bug/186164/+subscribe -- latex: user-specific texmf.cnf files do not work as expected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186164 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
