texlive and kile

just pacman -S texlive-most

kile now fails, on

*****     LaTeX output: 
*****     cd '/home/ryan/Documents'
*****     /opt/texlive/bin/latex -interaction=nonstopmode 'resume.tex'
*****
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6)
kpathsea: Running mktexfmt latex.fmt
mktexfmt: No such file or directory
I can't find the format file `latex.fmt'!

the file had 0 errors and ran perfect under tetex, so i think it is just configuring the paths and such....anyone have advice

Re: texlive and kile

When I first installed texlive, when it was installing the packages, appeared some error messages, because /opt/texlive wasn't in the $PATH; so after I installed, re-logged and reinstalled it. I don't if I really had to, but is working.

After install, I also rm my ~/.texmf-var dir because of some errors when running mktexfmt.
