Extra comma after the first author's last name

The entry
@book{testBook,
author = "Author One and Author Two and Author Three",
title = "Topic",
publisher = "Editor",
year = "1900",
}

give the output :
[OTT] One, Author, Author Two, Author Three

So there is an extra comma between the first author's first name and last name.

\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage{fourier}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (0,0) node {$a+b$};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Now, the '+' doesn't appear :

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage ...

How to find the texlive package to install ?

Is the package on CTAN? Is the package included in TeX Live?
For example, fourier , I know it's in texlive-fonts-extra and that I can install it with
sudo tlmgr install texlive-fonts-extra in Ubuntu. But how to find it if I didn't know it ?

Installing a font

It seems that you don't use TeX Live 2018 but the 2017 version. Online updates/installations are only possible with the current version, that's 2018. Verify that it's 2018 or install 2018. Perhaps it could work anyway if you run

sh update-tlmgr-latest.sh -- --upgrade

at the directory where that ...

make the tree : ~/texmf/tex/latex ;
copy the .cls and .sty files in ~/texmf/tex/latex ;
check if TEXMFHOME is ~/texmf by running kpsewhich -var-value ...

How to use texhash ?

Hi,

The command answers : /home/myuser/texmf.

But texhash may need to be run as sudo, in which case, I'm not home...
