After installing TeXlive from the CTAN, I tried to update the path but was not
able to have the system finding path for TeX related software, for example when
opening a new terminal , writing which tex would give no answer. Then doing
first su to myself,I did have an answer.

Looking around on the web, it turns out that the following page explains
exactly what the problem is:

https://ljwo.wordpress.com/2014/02/02/global-path-in-debian-wheezy-xfce/

I could solve the problem in my installation following the advice in that text,
but that is not the real correction to the problem.

I do not know exactly who I should contact for solving this, hence I just post
here. Thank you for your help.
