Here is some more strange behavior: If I'm in root and do texexec, everything works fine. If I'm in my user account and do texexec, everything works fine. If I su to my home directory from root (or su to root from my home dir), then texexec gives the error > texexec `texexec.pl' not found. If from here I su back to my home dir (or to root), the error remains. Starting a new console works if I don't su anywhere. I have installed the following in /etc/profile.d/texsetup.sh (based on advice from David Kastrup): case ":$PATH:" in *:/usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux:*) ;; *) PATH="/usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux:$PATH" esac What am I doing wrong?
