The TexLive-2013 radio button in the pref pane is now active, but none of the others. </div><div>The system still asks for a passwd when I try to select one, but nothing happens when I give it.</div><div><br></div><div>O.K. TexLive-2013 now works, and I know you will say that I should be happy with it, but I am co-authoring a book with a colleague, we are nearly finished and would like to be able to go back to TexLive-2012 so that we work with identical distributions (my colleague does not like updating software that has no problems). </div><div>Has anyone else seen this problem? </div><div><br></div><div>I see no problem with the PATH</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;">echo $PATH</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;">/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/X11/bin:/usr/texbin</div><div><br></div><div>/usr/texbin points here:</div><div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;">ls -als texbin</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;">8 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 63 19 avr 09:51 texbin -> /Library/TeX/Distributions/.DefaultTeX/Contents/Programs/texbin</div></div><div><br></div><div><div>/Library/TeX/Distributions/ seems OK:</div><div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;">cd /Library/TeX/Distributions/</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;">ls -als</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;">total 64</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 14 root admin 476 18 avr 16:25 .</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x@ 7 root admin 238 18 avr 16:25 ..</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 18 avr 16:25 .DefaultTeX</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 11 root admin 374 18 avr 16:25 .FactoryDefaults</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 18 déc 2010 Fink-teTeX.texdist</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 17 déc 2011 MacPorts-TeXLive.texdist</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 18 déc 2010 MacPorts-teTeX.texdist</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;">64 -rw-r--r--@ 1 root admin 31302 18 déc 2010 TeXDist-description.rtf</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 18 déc 2010 TeXLive-2010-64.texdist</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 18 déc 2010 TeXLive-2010.texdist</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 17 déc 2011 TeXLive-2011.texdist</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 14 déc 2012 TeXLive-2012.texdist</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 18 avr 16:25 TeXLive-2013.texdist</div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco;"> 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 18 déc 2010 gwTeX-2003-2005.texdist</div></div><div></div></div><div><br></div><div> Any Ideas anyone?</div><div><br></div><div apple-content-edited="true">
