SYNOPSIS

tlmgr check [what] [options]

DESCRIPTION

tlmgr check verifies the consistency and integrity of a TeX Live installation. If no problems are found, there is no output. Use `tlmgr -v check` for verbose output showing what is being checked. This action does not require write permissions and works the same in user mode and normal mode.

depends

executes

runfiles
List filenames that occur more than once in the runfiles sections, except for known duplicates.
lsr
