Well I installed Ruby and got to the next problem. I went back to step 1:
setuptex .
...followed by 
texexec --make --alone

So now I have a path problem. The set command shows the path as:

PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/tex/texmf-linux/bin:
/opt/www/htdig/bin:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/lib/java/jre/bin:/opt/kde/bin:/usr/lib/qt/bin:.

What path items do I need, beyond :/usr/local/tex/texmf-linux/bin?

Thanks for your help.
