While commenting on an issue over on ZeroBraneStudio I did the sensible thing and actually looked at the final search path being used by SILE to load anything.
The result for my system's installed
sile
includes a bunch of bogus paths in/usr/bin/...
,It looks like maybe this line is to blame:

SILE_LIB_PATH probably belongs, but SILE_PATH probably does not. This probably snuck in here because it makes sense for using SILE uninstalled from a project directory (git checkout or tarball extract) as
./sile
. In that case it would be needed ... but perhaps we need to a different way to solve that rather than wasting time looking at reams of bad paths (this causes hundreds of useless filesystem operations, something that is notorious for being a large part of why LaTeX –and elpecially LuaLaTeX) is so slow).The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
