What is the ownership of the actual files and ls-R files? I saw that<br>
you use tlmgr via sudo which is not recommended. /usr/local/texlive<br>
should be owned by you as a normal user and installation and updates<br>
should be run by you without sudo. Once you run any action which<br>
includes mktexlsr as root or via sudo, ld-R files will be owned by<br>
root:root and only readable by world. If you then try to run mktexlsr<br>
as you, the ls-R files will not be updated. If this is the case, just<br>
change the ownersip of the files and rerun mktexlsr as you. <br></blockquote></div><br></div>
