Thanks, Micah, I've already tried to do as you said, but there's still a pesky PATH reassignment somewhere in my system that I can't find. When I was doing this PATH update, at the time of installing TeXlive, I was floundering around, not knowing whether I should be putting the texlive path into .bashrc, .profile, .login, /etc/environment, /etc/bash.bashrc , /etc/profile, etc/profile.d or somewhere else (and whether it should be root or ~). Ah, the wonderful flexibility of unix.. Google/Ubuntu resources don't answer this definitively, or at least I couldn't find a simple, direct answer. I now think everything should happen in ~/.bashrc, but I may be wrong. Anyhow, I must have found some deeply-hidden config file somewhere and put the texlive path into it, and now I can't find it any more. I've been fgrepping around, without luck. I'll find it at some point, and then all will be well.
Thanks!
