As an extra attraction failed attempts to update leave "extra" links in a form /usr/share/texlive/texmf-local;5082xxxx which are rather "interesting" to remove due to a presence of ';'. Even "simple quoting" is of not much help. :-) Note this is rawhide. Please don't use it for production. Some adjustments need to be done so that TeX Live is properly usable on fresh installation of F19 and on. I will not keep update path clean among rawhide builds if it needs to be broken to fix some important things. This is what rawhide is actually for :) (In reply to comment #2) > Note this is rawhide. Please don't use it for production. Everything is true. Only there are two details. One is that this update really kills a default TEXMFLOCAL by "merging" it with /usr/share/texlive/texmf/ so it is truly broken does not matter which way you look at it. And the second is that contrary to claims in Changelog this does not fix neither bug 864875 nor bug 867656. If you want to close this obvious bug with NOTABUG I can only shrug. |
