I tried installing emerald fonts and followed the advice in this great answer. However, running updmap-sys would not update with the new fonts because it doesn't look into the file at TEXMFLOCAL/web2c/updmap.cfg. When I invoke it it states it will only look into the TEXMFDIST/web2c/updmap.cfg file. kpsewhich --var=TEXTMFLOCAL points to the correct directory /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local.

Everything worked fine when specifying the files myself:

sudo updmap-sys --cnffile $(kpsewhich --var=TEXMFLOCAL)/web2c/updmap.cfg  --cnffile $(kpsewhich --var=TEXMFDIST)/web2c/updmap.cfg

I am on a fairly clean distribution of texlive2015.

  • How did you install TeX Live? Did you use upstream's installer or did you use a package supplied by your distro? The latter seem to sometimes remove or not create quite the same functionality as upstream. – cfr May 02 '16 at 13:27
  • Did you run mktexlsr on TEXMFLOCAL? If the file was merely created it will not be found immediately by kpathses. – norbert May 02 '16 at 17:38
