I have HOMETEXTMF=~/etc/texmf and keep my own texmf tree there with a couple of custom classes and styles. For this to work, I have to run `mktextlsr` whenever a new document is added. it creates the file $HOMETEXTMF/ls-R, sort of the index.
I run `mktextlsr` very infrequently. In fact, I don't recall running it the last time. What disturbs me is that fishbowl:~> ls -l ~/etc/texmf/ls-R -rw------- 1 root root 1147 2003-02-09 23:25 ls-R it is owned by root:root. What the heck? What's root doing in my homedirectory? root should have no idea about ~/etc/texmf, and I surely can't create files owned by root. What the heck is going on? Anyone? -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; net@madduck NOTE: The pgp.net keyservers and their mirrors are broken!
