If the file is below /usr/local/texmf, and found at all (which you can test with the command "kpsewhere xkeyval.sty"), then it should definitely take precedence over files in /usr/share/texmf-tetex. What is the output of kpsewhich --var-value='TEXMF' kpsewhich --progname=xetex --var-value='TEXMF' Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f.
