[tex-live] Some problem about the searching path of TexLive

[Lars Madsen]

You have two latex installations

presumable you did not set TL2013 up correctly

TL2013 places its files in

/usr/local/texlive/2013/

your search also mentions

/usr/share/texlive/

which seems to be the place where Ubuntu places its version of TeX Live.

Thus you get an errors as the Ubuntu version only installs a small TL (that might be quite old)


So my question is:

how did you tell your system where the new TeX Live 2013 is?

Subject: [tex-live] Some problem about the searching path of TexLive

I'm currently learning LaTeX and using Tex Live for this purpose.

The problem I've encountered is: when I tried to use class or packages such as scrartcl and datetime, it said these files(scrartcl.cls and datetime.sty) couldn't be found. I have used 'sudo tlmgr search' command to sucessfully locate these files so it might be something wrong with Tex Live.

I have also observed that when I use 'article' class, there wasn't any error. But the searching path turned out to be '/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/article.cls'. And both files mentioned above are located in '/usr/local/texlive/2013/texmf-dist/tex/latex'. So I think may be the searching path is wrong and I wonder how can I solve the problem.

Thanks!
