Hi,
I am unable to get custom .cls files detected by the latex

I have a file "jbnotebook.cls" which works fine when it is placed in the same directory as the the file main.tex. So, the file itself is not a problem. Also,
[me@localhost]$ kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMFHOME /home/jayesh/.local/share/texmf
So far so good. I have placed my file jbnotebook.cls at the following location
/home/jayesh/.local/share/texmf/tex/latex/jbnotebook/jbnotebook.cls
Also, for sake of trying to make things work, I have the
following
file /home/jayesh/texmf/tex/latex/jbnotebook/jbnotebook.cls
And texhash has been run on both the texmf folder and they contain ls-R which is correct.
Now, [me@localhost]$ kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMF {/home/jayesh/.texlive/texmf-config,/home/jayesh/.texlive/texmf-
var,!!/home/jayesh/.local/share/texmf,!!/etc/texmf,!!/var/lib/texmf,!!/usr/share/texmf,!!/usr/local/share/texmf,!!/usr/share/texmf-
dist}
And still when I run the latex command, it tells me that the jbnotebook.cls is not found.
What can be the problem?
Sorry, got it. After an extensive search, just realized that the problem was in TEXMFDB variable where a typo had rendered the home directory useless. Anyway, I had read that the TeXLive should automatically anyway search in ~/texmf. Why did this not happen here?
