tl24 pretest: bug report

[Lars Madsen]

On my ubuntu I get the same results as Ulrike. Sid the same thing, copied a cls into the tree and updated ls-R for the texmf-local folder and it seems to be found correctly, overriting what is in the main tree.

What exactly is your setting for

kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFLOCAL

is it looking in the correct folder?

Well, my machine is Linux Mint, the latest version. It does not work on mine.

On windows it works fine. Just to make sure I moved a copy of
article.cls and updated lsr:

C:\Users\Nililand2020\Documents>kpsewhich --all article.cls
c:/texlive/texmf-local/tex/latex/base/article.cls
c:/texlive/2024/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/article.cls

and pdflatex uses it:

c:/texlive/texmf-local/tex/latex/base/article.cls
