Dear fellow Fedora users, I have installed Fedora 12 at home on two of my machines, since I am on dialup(at home) and the Fedora 12 install DVD did not have texlive :(, I obtained texlive.xz.iso at work and have installed texlive2009 on both machines. I have also installed kile from source(I know that Fedora is an rpm based distro, but I am not willing to allow the install to pull in texlive when I have it already installed). Any how, I have everything working, except the paths :( I did the following as directed after running the install: PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/i386-linux:$PATH; export PATH MANPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf/doc/man:$MANPATH; export MANPATH NFOPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf/doc/info:$INFOPATH; export INFOPATH but everytime I reboot, the commands get lost and I have to rerun them everytime. This is a great disadvantage to installing this way, but Fedora DVD did not have texlive by default[nor XFCE :( but that is another thing] Is there a way of making these changes permanent? Thank you guys in Advance and by the way Happy Thanksgiving to all and wish all a great Holiday :) Regards, Antonio -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
