I manually installed TexLive on Fedora 16 because I need to use tlmgr and install some packages. Now I want to get Texmaker, which I installed with yum, to work with the manually installed TexLive rather than the automatically installed one.

How can I configure it to do that?

    TUG gives some answers to install correctly a vanilla TeXLive tug.org/texlive/debian.html for Debian and Ubuntu users and I think it's perhaps the same things with Fedora.

  • @MartinScharrer Thanks, I was not aware that self-answers are acceptable. On some Stackexchange sites, you need high level of reputation to answer your own questions.

Figured it out.

Go to Options -> Configure Texmaker and replace latex with /usr/local/texlive/2011/bin/x86_64-linux/latex or equivalent. Do the same for pdflatex. Everything else should be fine, although I have not done further testing besides compiling some old documents.
