What is the difference between the package-searching mechanism of PdfLatex and TexMaker?

Where do I place my own .sty or .cls files, to make them available to all my .tex files?Checking installed packagesFinding directory path for .sty files

I usually use TeXmaker to edit and compile my .tex files. I am trying to figure out where I should put the file my-package.sty, so that I can use it by simple adding usepackage{my-package} to the preamble of any .tex file.

I found several related answers suggesting using kpsewhich and related commands, such as

• Where do I place my own .sty or .cls files, to make them available to all my .tex files?




• Finding directory path for .sty files




• Checking installed packages

However, on my system it seems that TeXmaker can find packages that neither kpsewhich nor pdflatex can find. For example, TeXmaker can compile the following file example.tex without error, and produces the correct output.

documentclass{article}

usepackage{lipsum}

begin{document}

lipsum[1]

end{document}

But pdflatex example.tex generates the error message

! LaTeX Error: File 'lipsum.sty' not found.,

and kpsewhich lipsum.sty returns nothing.

Does this mean that there are more than one version of pdflatex installed on my system? If so how do I check/configure which version TeXmaker uses?
(I'm using MacOS 10.11.6 and Texmaker 4.5 is installed using Macports)

Please share your thoughts. Thanks!
