 Posted: Fri Dec 28, 2007 12:29 pm Post subject: TEXMFSITE [Solved] |
 |
|
Though I set up the appropriate variable "TEXMFSITE" in the file "/usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf" ,
| Code: | TEXMFSITE=/usr/share/texmf-site
|
emerging "maxima" keeps on failing:
| Code: | >>> Emerging (1 of 1) sci-mathematics/maxima-5.13.0-r1 to /
* maxima-5.13.0.tar.gz RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ... [ ok ]
* checking ebuild checksums ;-) ... [ ok ]
* checking auxfile checksums ;-) ... [ ok ]
* checking miscfile checksums ;-) ... [ ok ]
* checking maxima-5.13.0.tar.gz ;-) ... [ ok ]
kpsewhich: unrecognized option `-var-value=TEXMFSITE'
* You haven't defined the TEXMFSITE variable in your TeX config.
* Please do so in the file /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf
*
* ERROR: sci-mathematics/maxima-5.13.0-r1 failed.

What am I doing wrong?

| I guess there is a bug in the ebuild or the installer scripts of the maxima package; the option '-var-value' is not recognized. You should file a bug. |

I emerged maxima without setting TEXMFSITE first, in the conf file I have
| Code: | | TEXMFSITE = $SELFAUTODIR/share/texmf-site |
where SELFAUTODIR=/usr. Everything went flawlessly. I'm using texlive-2007, not tetex-3. In case you want to try it, add this to /etc/portage/package.keywords:
| Code: | =app-text/texlive-2007*
=app-text/texlive-core-2007*
=dev-tex/latex-beamer-3.0*
=dev-tex/pgf-1.18*
=app-text/ps2eps-1.64*
=dev-tex/xcolor-2.11*

EDIT: Something else just occured to me: Try to change the conf file line to
| Code: | | TEXMFSITE = /usr/share/texmf-site |
with spaces before and after the '='. |

I tried adding spaces but nothing changed. I'm using "tex-2.0.2-r9" because higher releases are not compatible with "dev-tex/memoir". Could you please try executing
| Code: | | kpsewhich --version |
and
| Code: | | kpsewhich --var-value=TEXMFSITE |
to see if the issue comes from this command? |

OK, I get
| Code: | #kpsewhich --version
kpathsea version 3.5.6
[...] |
and further
| Code: | #kpsewhich --var-value=TEXMFSITE
/usr/share/texmf-site |
By the way:
| Code: | #qfile /usr/bin/kpsewhich
app-text/texlive-core |

In my case:
| Code: | > qfile /usr/bin/kpsewhich
app-text/tetex (/usr/bin/kpsewhich)
> kpsewhich --version
kpathsea version 3.4.5

I'll unmerge "memoir" and emerge tetex-3 and see if kpsewhich behaves differently. |

there we go:
| Code: | >kpsewhich --version
kpathsea version 3.5.5

> kpsewhich --var-value=TEXMFSITE
/usr/share/texmf-site |
and maxima emerged flawlessly. I therefore have to give up with the "memoir" package. |
