Subject: A few questions about texmfcnf.lua and mtxrun in TexLive.
Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2022 12:13:26 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <D5qmBVYgPSECwiCqKcohx6KDLzDICfx-X5bdydARv-Bo5kx3XEHSoqm8LmE_ZWqc4IGsbyPnm6tdMqndmCPzX1dMEZxDgUirTDKx4Jo82xs=@proton.me> (raw)

I'm currently using TexLive 2021 from Gentoo Linux. TexLive 2022 may behave with slight differences.

* How does /usr/share/texmf-local/web2c/texmfcnf.lua override /usr/share/texmf-dist/web2c/texmfcnf.lua? According to mtxrun --configurations, /usr/share/texmf-dist comes later than /usr/share/texmf-local. It seems to me that texmf-dist should override texmf-local.

* mtxrun --resolve-path '$SELFAUTOPARENT' resolves selfautoparent to '.' which is the current working directory if selfautodir is /usr. I think mtxrun refuses to accept '/' as selfautoparent and assigns the current working directory to selfautoparent. Is this a bug?
