In the section entitled Install the zip archive towards the end of the page, the line

cp -a /root/.texmf-var/web2c/* /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-var/web2c

contains the hard-coded path /root/.texmf-var/web2c which is not explained. Could you clarify where I should be looking for the .texm-var/web2c folder and its contents please?

Thanks.

  • You should be doing all of the installation as root, and therefore it should be in the folder /root, since that is root's home directory. Taco
