This is a documented change in the 7.7 release. If you had read the release
notes, or had checked olc answers you would have found the following notice
of the change:
- style files have moved, and you may need to change your
TEXINPUTS environment variable. See the stock answer "Changing
Your TEXINPUTS for Release 7.7"
The full set of release notes can be found on olh (on line help). It states:
"Style Files Moved. In addition to adding new styles, the new release also
reorganized the style files into new subdirectories -- taking advantage of
the fact that TeX now has the ability to search subdirectories for style
files without your having to explicitly specify every directory. This
reorganization of files will not cause any problem for you unless you have
been using the TEXINPUTS environment variable to tell TeX/LaTeX where to
find the style files. In this case, you might fail to find styles you
have been using successfully before because the style files have moved
and your TEXINPUTS settings do not include the new locations. If this
problem happens to you, you will need to revise your TEXINPUTS variable.
To do this, you will need to understand how the TEXINPUTS variable is used."
It suggests a change from:
setenv TEXINPUTS .:/mit/sipb/lib/tex/macros:/usr/athena/lib/tex/macros
to the following line:
setenv TEXINPUTS .:/mit/sipb/lib/tex/macros:/usr/athena/lib/tex/macros//
