== What == The "UMBC" Beamer theme I use in all of my presentations at UMBC. == How == In the makefile of your project, you should list all of the pieces of the theme. For example, UMBC = beamercolorthemeUMBC.sty beamerfontthemeUMBC.sty UMBC += beamerinnerthemeUMBC.sty beamerouterthemeUMBC.sty UMBC += beamerthemeUMBC.sty images/umbc_logo.pdf The absolute paths to those libraries, on your system, can be found using "kpsewhich" from the kpathsea suite: UMBCPATHS = $(shell kpsewhich $(UMBC)) Now add those as dependencies of your document: example.pdf: example.tex example.bbl ... $(UMBCPATHS) WARNING: This will only work as long as the path to beamer-umbc is in your $TEXINPUTS environment variable! I suggest setting it in ~/.bashrc.
