Hallo Norbert!

By the way, some of the files in directory /home/ are symbolic links to
other local directories. For instance /home/mroberts ->

And your problem is
        HOME=/home/mroberts/
the terminal / in your $HOME. Because thus the TEXMFHOME variable is
expanded to
        /home/mroberts//texmf
which in turn makes kpathsea search *ALL* of your home directory
for a file.

Well spotted! A typo in /etc/passwd! Thank you very much.

But is this behaviour intended in kpathsea? Should it not spot the double slash and interpret it as a single slash?

Thanks again for solving my problem,
Mark Roberts
