PATH question for gnus

PATH question for gnus

[Joseph Vidal-Rosset]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 618 bytes --]

Hello,

I am a Debian GNU/Linux user, but, contrarily that I did, I have recently
decided to install texlive via the sources in /usr/local/ . I put in my
init.el (user.el in scimax) : (setenv "PATH" (concat
"/usr/local/texlive/2018/bin/x86_64-linux/:" (getenv "PATH")))
                    (setenv "PATH" (concat "/usr/texbin:/usr/local/bin/:"
(getenv "PATH")))

and the export in LaTeX works.  But in Gnus, org-mime  does not work and I
cannot create pgn images:  neither latex nor dvipng exist for Gnus. It is a
problem of PATH configuration that I do not succeed to solve.

Your help is welcome.

Best wishes,

Jo.

put something like

PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2018/bin/x86_64-linux:$PATH
MANPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf/doc/man:$MANPATH
INFOPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf/doc/info:$INFOPATH
export PATH MANPATH INFOPATH

in your .profile/.bashrc, (and .xsessionrc if your're using lightdm for
login)

Best regards
Robert

Many thanks Robert, it works now !

The last line export PAHT MANPATH INFOPATH was not correctly written in my setup. I had now .xsessionrc
and its add was strangely a problem for the replying function in gnus.

Anyway, now \(\LaTeX\) in my Gnus works thanks to you.


Best regards, and thanks again !
