Hi all, > /usr/local/share/texmf not owned > /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R not owned didn't we have this before??? I faintly remember infinite discussions about that. But I also remember that I didn't remove and code around that, ehich means that *sonewhere* in the packages there is an unprotected mktexlsr run which does not specify trees, so the one in texmflocal is generated. I'll check on that. Norbert
