Ah, that’s the monolithic texlive.  I don’t think I can help with this,
I’m afraid.

I think the error is not that it looks in /usr, but that it doesn’t find
the file earlier.  The search in /usr is a last resort here.  It first
uses the “kpse lua searcher”, then the “kpse C searcher”, and only then
tries /usr.

kpse search is weird, but it is controlled by environment variables.
Does the file exist in 
/gnu/store/wlba9v03ypi0z5qz7p89sa0w12lh37zb-texlive-20180414 ?  If it does then
we need to make sure that it is in a sub-directory that texlive will
search.

(For the modular texlive the file is provided by texlive-latexconfig.)
