fixing kpathsea

so you haven't installed anything yet?

I would assume that if you are trying to install upstream TL then you do not need to change anything, not PATH changes are needed to do an installation as the installer is specifically made so it only uses its own stuff.

Hi Lars,

what do you mean by root terminal

what I mean is that I run that export command before I run the command to install the texlive-basic package from the repository (the equivalent of that second command for Ubuntu would be 'apt-get install texlive-basic', I think). That is, I set that path before giving the command to run the install script. However, that export command, more to the point that $PATH setting, doesn't help that package install. I'm trying to figure out what $PATH I need to have set, when I have a TUG TL install in a local directory, and also a system TL install, so that the system package can install successfully. So far, I haven't found it.

Cheers,
