kilerc file for running Kile using WSL
Hey,
SUMMARY
I am trying to use Kile on Windows 10, while Latex is installed into a WSL 1
running Ubuntu 18.04.
WSL allows to start any Linux app using `wsl <linux app>` from Windows, so
pdflatex can be started using `wsl pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode
%source`. Windows and UNIX paths can be easily converted using `wslpath`.
Everything works, expect to build the BibTeX for the LivePreview.
Once I copy the .bib file to the temporary location, used for the LivePreview,
building the LivePreview works as well.
I do not understand what happens during LivePreview, but it looks like Kile
misses to copy the .bib file to the temporary folder?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install WSL and texlive-full,
2. Install Kile,
3. Apply the attaches kilerc
4. Try to use the LivePreview
OBSERVED RESULT
bibtex fails for the LivePreview only:
*****
***** BibTeX output:
***** cd "C:/Users/Gocht/AppData/Local/Temp/kile-livepreview.ZhnBlo"
***** wsl bibtex paper
*****
This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2017/Debian)
The top-level auxiliary file: paper.aux
The style file: IEEEtran.bst
I couldn't open database file paper.bib
---line 76 of file paper.aux
: \bibdata{paper
: }
I'm skipping whatever remains of this command
I found no database files---while reading file paper.aux
EXPECTED RESULT
That BibTeX finds the .bib file ;-)
