Jindrich,
That does not appear to be the case, as several threads have
discussed. /usr/share/texmf-local is in the path. Some of us have
symlinked that to /usr/share/texmf as a workaround.
E.g., José Matos said a few months ago:
According to texconfig
kpathsea variables
...
TEXMF={/usr/share/texlive/texmf-config,/usr/share/texlive/texmf-var,/root/texmf,!!/usr/share/texlive/texmf-config,!!/usr/share/texlive/texmf-var,!!/usr/share/texlive/texmf,!!/usr/share/texlive/../texmf-local,!!/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist}
...
Note that /usr/share/texmf is not in that search path.
Since /usr/share/texmf-local is in the list making it a symbolic link to
/usr/share/texmf (after running texhash) shows it again:
$ kpsewhere preview.sty
/usr/share/texlive/../texmf-local/tex/latex/preview/preview.sty
BTW: if texlive is in rawhide is it now appropriate to use bugzilla
for this stuff?
thanks,
Colin
