[Tex/LaTex] Jerus10 font metric (TFM) file not found after installing TexLive 2013

fontshebrewtexliveUbuntu

I'll start by saying I'm new to ubuntu and texlive.

I just installed texlive2013 and am trying to create a pdf on ubuntu 12.04 TLS.

I'm using both English and Hebrew, but neither seam to work: when trying to create the PDF I get the (apparently known) message:

Font LHE/cmr/m/n/10=jerus10 at 10.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not found

I've already installed texlive-fonts-recommended, but it doesn't seem to help.

I'm thinking that although the fonts are installed, there might be a problem getting their path.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to fixing this problem or understanding its cause?

TeX MWE:

%% LyX 2.0.2 created this file.  For more info, see http://www.lyx.org/.
%% Do not edit unless you really know what you are doing.
\documentclass[english,hebrew]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\begin{document}
\selectlanguage{english}%
hello\selectlanguage{hebrew}%
\end{document}

The part of install-tl-ubuntu that is used for adding support for Hebrew is the following (I edited it so that it has a chance of working stand alone). I do not know if it will work for you or not without the rest of the script.

dTEXMFLOCAL="$(kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFLOCAL)"
WGET_CMD="wget --tries=5"
mkdir "/tmp/HebrewFonts" &&
cd "/tmp/HebrewFonts" &&
${WGET_CMD} "http://archive.debian.org/debian/pool/main/i/ivritex/ivritex_1.1.1-6_all.deb" &&
ar x "ivritex_1.1.1-6_all.deb" && tar -xf "data.tar.gz" &&
rsync -a "usr/share/texmf/" "${dTEXMFLOCAL}"
mktexlsr "${dTEXMFLOCAL}"
