To me this looks like there is something wrong with the TeX installation on your system. The following command also fails, right?
kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMFHOME
But I cannot really help you with that. I never had a similar problem. But I suppose it is always best to avoid installing TeX indirectly via brew cask
or something like it.
As a quick workaround you can probably create the sty files with something like this.
cd source && latex beamerthememetropolis.ins && mv *.sty ../ && cd ..
@benjamin-weiss Thanks for your help.
Typing kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMFHOME
gave:
/Users/xiehao/Library/texmf
And directly using latex
command in the source folder generated the same error.:(
Ok. Very strange. But you don't have problems typesetting any other tex files?
Do you get the same error with xelatex (or luatex)?
xelatex beamerthememetropolis.ins
@benjamin-weiss It looks OK using xelatex
:
**************************************************************

* To finish the installation you have to move the following *
* files into a directory searched by TeX: *
* *
* beamerthememetropolis.sty *
* beamerinnerthememetropolis.sty *
* beamerouterthememetropolis.sty *
* beamerfontthememetropolis.sty *
* beamercolorthememetropolis.sty *
* pgfplotsthemetol.sty *
* *
* To produce the documentation run the file mtheme.dtx *
* through LaTeX. *

* Happy TeXing! *

@matze What are we gonna do about this issue? I really think it originates from a misconfigured TeX installation, so we should probably just close it.
I thinks so too. And apparently, @xiehao can now produce the style files.
Hi there, When I typed
make sty
in terminal, it gave me the following output and nothing was generated: (I am using OS X 10.11 El Capitan, with MacTeX installed usingbrew cask
)
