I installed TexLive on Arch Linux together with texlive-latexextra in order to use the package todonotes, but latexmk does not find the todonotes.sty file. This is what it prints:
$ latexmk —
pdf latex-preview.tex
Latexmk: This is Latexmk, John Collins, 5 February 2015, version: 4.43a.

Rule 'pdflatex': File changes, etc:

I located it manually, it is in /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/todonotes/.
For some reason, this folder has not been added to the locations latexmk searches for sty files.
So, how does latexmk look for sty files and how do I add folders for it to search through?
Running texhash gives this:
texhash: Updating /etc/texmf/ls-R...
texhash: Updating /usr/share/texmf-dist/ls-R...
texhash: Updating /var/lib/texmf/ls-R...
texhash: Done.
But it does not work after that or after rebooting..
texhash claims to watch ls -R /usr/share/texmf-dist/. It should find it in there, considering this:
$ ls -R /usr/share/texmf-dist/ | grep todonotes
