[tex-live] Error when trying to use TeX Live's 2015 tlmgr on FreeBSD 9.3

[Zdenek Wagner]

Hi,

The exact path to tlmgr.pl is not the only important thing, you must have
your executables in PATH. I see that tlmgr is not run from
/usr/local/texlive/2015/bin/$ARCH but from /usr/local/bin. If you created
symlinks in /usr/local/bin during installation, it is OK. You should fist
try by ls -l /usr/local/bin/tlmgr whether it is a symlink to
/usr/local/texlive/2015/bin/$ARCH/tlmgr where $ARCH is your architecture,
probably x86_64-linux. Missing file TLConfig.pm should be in
/usr/local/texlive/2015/tlpkg/TeXLive/TLConfig.pm
