Hi again, I finally solved this issue (or at least I found an acceptable workaround).
So, if anyone is facing this same problem you must edit /etc/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf so it looks like this: %TEXMFHOME = $HOME/texmf ... % TEXMFVAR, where texconfig stores variable runtime data. % With teTeX-3.0 or later, this must be set. % For sharing this tree with $TEXMFMAIN: TEXMFVAR = $TEXMFMAIN % For using a separate tree: % TEXMFVAR = $HOME/.texmf-var %TEXMFVAR = $HOME/.texmf-var ... % TEXMFCONFIG, where texconfig stores configuration data. % With teTeX-3.0 or later, this must be set. % For sharing this tree with $TEXMFMAIN: TEXMFCONFIG = $TEXMFMAIN % For using a separate tree: % TEXMFCONFIG = $HOME/.texmf-config % For using a separate tree: % TEXMFCONFIG = /var/lib/texmf-config %TEXMFCONFIG = $HOME/.texmf-config This will avoid all the lookup at your home directory by using the system's files Hope this will help somebody -- Rodrigo Lazo (rlazo) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
