Public bug reported: My installation sequence: -first a fresh install of ubuntu desktop 32 bit 10.04.3 -then lilypond -and then texmaker.
Compiling in latex (or pdflatex) is impossible since latex cannot find any of the needed files such as 'report.cls'. After commenting out the following lines in /home/usr/.profile the problem was solved: # path naar tex en musixtex TEXINPUTS=".:$HOME/.texmf-var/tex//" MFINPUTS=".:$HOME/.texmf-var/fonts//" export TEXINPUTS MFINPUTS So ther is a misconfiguration in the automatic installprocedure.
