Is this a new report?

Yes

System Info

Void 5.18.19_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel notuptodate rFFFF

Package(s) Affected

texlive-bin-2022_2

Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

Not that I'm aware of.

Expected behaviour

Installing a package with /opt/texlive/2022/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr will allow pdflatex, latexmk, etc to use that package in compilation.

Actual behaviour

It fails to find all tlmgr installed packages.

Steps to reproduce

  1. sudo /opt/texlive/2022/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr install physics, then check by running again to get:
tlmgr: package repository https://mirror.las.iastate.edu/tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet (verified)
tlmgr install: package already present: physics

Another check:
fd physics /opt/texlive:

/opt/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/doc/latex/physics/
/opt/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/doc/latex/physics/physics.pdf
/opt/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/doc/latex/physics/physics.tex

kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMFDIST also returns /opt/texlive/2022/texmf-dist, so it's unclear why tex cannot find physics.sty.

Whats interesting is if I do: xbps-query -m | rg tex I get

texlive-LuaTeX-20210325_4
texlive-bin-2022_2
texlive-dvi-20210325_4

@classabbyamp

ok, the issue is caused by having both texlive-bin and texlive installed. uninstall all the texlive xbps packages except texlive-bin (and texliveYYYY-bin) and install the desired tex compilers via tlmgr (e.g. tlmgr install pdflatex etc)

@danjenson

ok, How do I then install texlive-dvi and texlive-LuaTex? Are they tlmgr packages too? it looks like texlive must have been a dependent of one of those.

yes, everything in the texlive packages is available via ctan/tlmgr

@classabbyamp

actually, you should be able to have both installed side-by-side, but the critical bit is they aren't able to interact with each other, so you would have to install pdflatex/luatex/etc from ctan to use it with tlmgr-installed packages
