Subject: precedence of texmf trees
Date: Tue, 19 Oct 2021 20:24:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <25FB7703-39BE-4B62-8E89-568B40E89558@fiee.net> (raw)

Hi wizards,

if I have files with the same name in several texmf trees (e.g. texmf-context, texmf-local, texmf-project, ~/texmf or TeX Live’s texmf-dist, texmf-var), which one will be used?

I guess “local” trees or “local” directories take precedence over “distribution”, but which is “the localest” of ~/texmf/..., texmf-dist/.../local, texmf-local/... ?

Where is the order defined? (Not in TDS.)

Hraban
