<title>Setting the PATH for TeX Live</title>
<para>
Before starting to build TeX Live, set up your PATH so
that the system can properly find the files. If you set up your login
scripts as recommended in <xref linkend='postlfs-config-profile'/>, update
the needed paths by appending to the
<filename>extrapaths.sh</filename> script. The programs are always
installed in an &lt;ARCH&gt;-linux subdirectory and on 32-bit x86 this is
always i386-linux. For x86_64 and i?86 we can generate this as $TEXARCH:
</para>
<note>
<para>
If upgrading from a previous year's version, you should manually
edit <filename>extrapaths.sh</filename> to ensure that the version for
the year you wish to use is the only TeX present (some people need to
keep multiple years available to ensure there are no regressions in
their documents).
</para>
</note>
<!-- EOF should NOT be in double quotes, we want it to evaluate $TEXARCH -->
<!-- this is also in texlive.xml -->
<screen role="root"><userinput>export TEXARCH=$(uname -m | sed -e 's/i.86/i386/' -e 's/$/-linux/') &amp;&amp;

<note>
<para>
The standard MANPATH and INFOPATH path are specified above to
ensure they are included. If they are already set in the boot script
procedure, the pathappend function will ensure duplicates are
removed, so including them here will do no harm.
</para>
</note>
<para>
The new paths can be immediately activated by running <command>source
/etc/profile</command>.
</para>
<para>
You should now proceed either to <xref linkend="tl-installer"/> for
a binary installation of texlive, or to <xref linkend="texlive"/> to begin
installing from source.
