Add Local Package

We do not support user-requested packages in our module. If you need a package that is not included, please install it locally by following these instructions.

module load texlive
mkdir -p ~/texmf/tex/latex

The directory structure of ~/texmf/tex/latex should be the same as

ls $EBROOTTEXLIVE/texmf-dist/tex/latex

Each package should reside in its own directory. Create a subdirectory for your package under ~/texmf/tex/latex and copy the *.sty file from ctan.org into the subdirectory. (If the package does not provide a *.sty, please follow the installation instructions. Typically, latex *.dtx or latex *.ins should produce the *.sty file.)

Then run:

$ texhash ~/texmf
texhash: Updating /home/mst3k/texmf/ls-R...
texhash: Done.

You should now be able to use the new package locally.
