Hello,

I currently do some experiments on the usage of cwebmac combined with
luatex, which is quite successfull, until I include tikz.

Anyway, I want modify some cwebmac macros, as I did in the past, so I
installed some local cwebmac.tex in

	${HOME)/tex/local/askgeneral/cwebmac.tex

that leads to

	$ kpsewhich cwebmac.tex
	/home/ingo/texmf/tex/local/askgeneral/cwebmac.tex

which is what I expected.

When I now use luatex on some file, converted with cweave I get:

	$ luatex scan_portage_dir.tex | head
	This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.60.2-2010071218 (TeX Live 2010)
	(rev 3736)
	 restricted \write18 enabled.
	 (./scan_portage_dir.tex
	 (/usr/share/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/plain/cweb/cwebmac.tex
	[...]

But this is no luatex problem, it seems a global installation problem:

	$ tex scan_portage_dir.tex | head
	This is TeX, Version 3.1415926 (TeX Live 2010)
	 encTeX v. Jun. 2004, reencoding enabled.
	 (./scan_portage_dir.tex
	 (/usr/share/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/plain/cweb/cwebmac.tex)
	[...]

Now I'm confused.  What's going wrong here?

bye ingo
