Package: texlive-base-bin
Version: 2007-14
Severity: normal
I use the same set of texlive-* packages on two machines, one with
etch, the other with sid. I never made a single change in
/etc/texmf. I use the same ~/texmf on both though.
On the etch machine,
kpsexpand '$TEXMFDBS'
/home/madduck/texmf/:/var/lib/texmf:/usr/local/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf:/tmp/texfonts:/usr/share/texmf-{texlive,tetex}
On sid:
kpsexpand '$TEXMFDBS'
{!!/var/lib/texmf,!!/usr/local/share/texmf,!!/usr/share/texmf,!!/usr/share/texmf-{texlive,tetex}}
As you can see, /home/madduck/texmf/ (== $TEXMFHOME) is no longer
part of this. As a result, kpsewhich --show-path=ls-R does not
output the $TEXMFHOME path and texhash/mktexlsr does not update the
ls-R file, and I have to do that manually, by explicitly stating the
path.
It would be nice if this could be fixed again so that texhash just
updates $TEXMFHOME if present, without requiring an extra step.
