problem with localpaths.tex #7

Open kohlhase opened 9 years ago

kohlhase commented 9 years ago

There is a general problem with localpaths.tex in docker-based installations of lmh. When I generate them with lmh in docker, they contain /path/to/.... which makes it impossible to run simple pdflatex on them.

The only way I see to get around that seems to create /path/to and then link ~/localmh into that, if I want to use regular pdflatex. Am I overlooking something?

Can we not simply make them use relative paths? (Can latex handle those?)

I do not remember correctly, but there was a good reason we changed to absolute paths back then. I will try to remember.
