Thread: LATEX not found (TexLive 2009 issue)


when trying install auctex 11.85 configuration process aborted because latex not found:

code:
checking latex... none  configure: error: latex not found, aborting!  must install latex preview work.  configure: error: ./configure failed preview
i have no idea problem is. installed texlive 2009 few days ago. after installation added few lines /etc/environment file. looks this:

code:
path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games"  path="/usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/x86_64-linux"  manpath="/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf/doc/man"  infopath="usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf/doc/info"  export path
is correct? can me? thanks.

your /etc/environment lacks important line system recognize latex presence - path texlive binaries. should this:
code:
path="/usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/x86_64-linux:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games"
edit: seems adding second line in file didn't work, move contents of second line first.
