I'm following this guide on how to install TeX Live on Ubuntu 12.04 (and I'm trying to install TeX Live 2013, not 2012.). I want to install all the packages (except for the language support, I just need English (UK)).
In this section it starts getting vague:
Setting environment variables
Add new paths to your environment variables. In ~/.profile add finally the lines:
PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2012/bin/i386-linux:$PATH; export PATH
MANPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2012/texmf/doc/man:$MANPATH; export MANPATH
INFOPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2012/texmf/doc/info:$INFOPATH; export INFOPATH
Finally do the MANPATH mapping, open the terminal and type
$ sudo gedit /etc/manpath.config
Find the section with # set up PATH to MANPATH mapping. At the end of this section add the following line.
MANPATH_MAP /usr/local/texlive/2012/bin/i386-linux /usr/local/texlive/2012/texmf/doc/man
Now we can close the gedit window.
Where exactly do I add the PATH
,MANPATH
,INFOPATH
lines in the profile
file? Right at the bottom?
The MANPATH_MAP
line doesn't exactly fit neatly in the predefined columns in this section, so does the amount of spacing in
MANPATH_MAP /usr/local/texlive/2012/bin/i386-linux /usr/local/texlive/2012/texmf/doc/man
actually matter?
