Setting the PATH for TeX Live
Before starting to build TeX Live, set up your PATH so that the
system can properly find the files. If you set up your login scripts
as recommended in Bash シェルの初期起動ファイル, update the needed
paths by creating the texlive.sh
script. The programs are always installed in an <ARCH>-linux
subdirectory and on 32-bit x86 this is always i386-linux. For x86_64
and i?86 we can generate this as $TEXARCH:
![[注記]](../images/note.png)
注記
If upgrading from a previous year's version, you should manually
edit texlive.sh to ensure that the
version for the year you wish to use is the only TeX present (some
people need to keep multiple years available to ensure there are no
regressions in their documents).
Now, create the texlive.sh script as the root user:
TEXARCH=$(uname -m | sed -e 's/i.86/i386/' -e 's/$/-linux/')
cat > /etc/profile.d/texlive.sh << EOF
# Begin texlive setup
TEXLIVE_PREFIX=/opt/texlive/2023
export TEXLIVE_PREFIX
pathappend \$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/texmf-dist/doc/man MANPATH
pathappend \$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/texmf-dist/doc/info INFOPATH
pathappend \$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/bin/$TEXARCH
# End texlive setup
EOF
unset TEXARCH
注記
The standard MANPATH and INFOPATH path are specified above to ensure they are included. If they are already set in the boot script procedure, the pathappend function will ensure duplicates are removed, so including them here will do no harm.
注記
The backslashes before the dollar signs in the script above are to facilitate a copy/paste operation. The backslashes should not appear in the actual script.
The new paths can be immediately activated by running:
source /etc/profile
The shared libraries will be installed into a texlive directory. As
the root user, add it to your
/etc/ld.so.conf:
cat >> /etc/ld.so.conf << EOF
# Begin texlive addition
$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/lib
# End texlive addition
EOF
You should now proceed either to install-tl-unx for a binary installation of texlive, or to texlive-20230313 to begin installing from source.
