I have installed MacTex 2010 now. My latex2e experiences remain unchanged. Here is what I have working in an X
command-line window; this is essentially the same (from my perspective) as with my previous texLive 2010 installation.
I simply removed the 2010 folder in /usr/local/texlive when installing MacTex. The umask is 2.
a) tex seems to run fine. I normally only use tex and dvips as well as ps2pdf I installed separately.
I use this combination all the time.
b) latex still fails to find the article.cls file when running in user mode.
c) sudo latex seems to work perfectly.
Fortunately I can tolerate running sudo for the very short term latex needs I have.
Thanks again for your thoughts on this. If I missed something, please don't hesitate to remind me!!
