fixing kpathsea

So you have a TUG TIL 2017 and you are trying to update it?

I don't think that is possible anymore, only TUG TL 2019 can currently be updated.

sudo su -
export PATH=....

which latex

should then give the TUG TL latex, and then you can try to use tlmgr

Hi Lars,

Ok so that is your problem you have never setup your terminal to use TUG TL (I would probably have done that instead of hardwriring paths into the editor)

well, as I said, my .bashrc file has the following line:

export PATH=/[$HOME]/tex-local/texlive/2017/:$PATH.

Is there some other line I need in my .bashrc? Including the path to the binaries as well (ie, /[$HOME]/tex-local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/) doesn't seem to help.


Is your TUG TL installed as you or root?

as root.

Cheers,
