Installation of dvisvgm

To enable the build system to link to libkpathsea.so, as the root user create a symlink from /usr/lib:

ln -svf /opt/texlive/2020/lib/libkpathsea.so /usr/lib

Now install dvisvgm by running the following commands:

./configure                                    \
 --bindir=/opt/texlive/2020/bin/${TEXARCH}     \
 --mandir=/opt/texlive/2020/texmf-dist/doc/man \
 --with-kpathsea=/opt/texlive/2020            &&
make

To test the results, issue: make check.

Now, as the root user:

make install

Command Explanations

ln -svf /opt/texlive/2020/lib/libkpathsea.so /usr/lib: Without this, the program will not link correctly,

--with-kpathsea=/opt/texlive/2020: This allows the build system to find the headers for kpathsea
