Unexpected tlmgr behaviour

TeX - LaTeX Asked on February 14, 2021

I have the following unexpected behaviour when I run tlmgr

  • Running tlmgr --version tells me I’m running TeX Live 2020, namely the output is:
tlmgr revision 57119 (2020-12-13 00:40:00 +0100)
tlmgr using installation: /usr/local/texlive/2020
TeX Live (https://tug.org/texlive) version 2020
  • Running sudo tlmgr --gui tells me I’m running TeX Live 2019 (‽), in particular:
tlmgr revision 53568 (2020-01-27 19:20:16 +0100)
tlmgr using installation: /usr/share/texlive
TeX Live (http://tug.org/texlive) version 2019
  • Running sudo su and then tlmgr --gui gives me again TeX Live 2020, with output:
tlmgr revision 57119 (2020-12-13 00:40:00 +0100)
tlmgr using installation: /usr/local/texlive/2020
TeX Live (https://tug.org/texlive) version 2020

Why is that, and how do I fix it?

I tried removing /usr/share/texlive hoping that if tlmgr won’t find it it would go about to search for /usr/local/texlive/2020, but no luck.

It should be noted that I installed texlive 2020 on a fresh system, i.e. I never ever installed texlive 2019, which makes this behaviour even more surprising.
