TeX Live: lualatex looks in /usr

[Marco van Hulten]

Hi all—

lualatex (from texlive-20180414) is looking in /usr/local/.


$ lualatex apen                                                    
This is LuaTeX, Version 1.07.0 (TeX Live 2018)

This looks like a bug.  What would be the best approach.

I do not want energy be spend to get old stuff working.

At the same time, installing texlive-base from the core-updates branch
has problems as well here (on this list, one month ago).

This happens from a terminal, but from Texmaker lualatex works (builds
a good PDF).

Please show us the file you’re working with and the texlive packages you
have installed.

Ah, that’s the monolithic texlive.  I don’t think I can help with this,
I’m afraid.

I think the error is not that it looks in /usr, but that it doesn’t find
the file earlier.  The search in /usr is a last resort here.  It first
uses the “kpse lua searcher”, then the “kpse C searcher”, and only then
tries /usr.

kpse search is weird, but it is controlled by environment variables.
Does the file exist in /gnu/store/wlba9v03ypi0z5qz7p89sa0w12lh37zb-texlive-20180414 ?  If it does then
we need to make sure that it is in a sub-directory that texlive will
search.

(For the modular texlive the file is provided by texlive-latexconfig.)
