I'm trying to have both MikTex and TexLive working on my Ubuntu Linux. Both the tex distros have been installed through apt-get. I know this is related to settings on the PATH variable. So what I did is:
Find TexLive executables location:
whereis texlive
That gives:
texlive: /usr/local/texlive /usr/share/texlive
so I added the first one to the PATH, by making sure it comes as first:
PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2018/bin/x86_64-linux:$PATH ; export PATH
Checking the PATH indeed gives:
/usr/local/texlive/2018/bin/x86_64-linux:/home/stefano/mpich-install/bin:/home/stefano/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin
However, if I do:
tex --version
Still I get:

And the same goes for pdflatex
and xelatex
. Notice that:
which pdflatex
Gives:
/home/stefano/bin/pdflatex
Which is actually a symlink as I can see from:
ls -lah | grep pdflatex
Output:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 mag 29 14:37 pdflatex -> /usr/bin/miktex-pdftex
What I'm missing?
ubuntu path latex
