Summary of what I have attempted to do (all changes are only in chapter 48) - 1. typesetting A lot more introductory text. I have also indicated why people might want to use the binary. 2. install-tl-unx Move the instructions about setting the PATH to their own page and point to that. 3. texlive... -texmf The required scripts and docs. With a big Note and using tar ... -C from the current directory. 4. texlive ... -source pass 1 New page, for building from source - copied from -source. <rude words> : I _thought I had set TEXARCH in texlive for 7.6, but apparently I only did it to the binary installer. This version has x86_64 hardcoded and I did not notice (and then fixed that up in texlive itself). A large slice of dependencies and command explanations ought to be in a copy member for htis approach (shared by texlive), I have not wasted time trying to do that. Remeasured for 7.6. 5. Setting the PATH for TeX Live Moved from install-tl-unx to its own page, new final paragraph telling people where to go after this. 6. texlive ... -source This is now set out to prefer a build from pass 1. The (full) install for building for binary probably needs to be 'nodump'. Changed title to include -source (two links both called texlive-20140525-source were driving me mad when I added texmf). Changed the introductory text, make it depend on pass 1 or the binary installer. Tweak the text about python and ruby without going into the brief detail in the tl-installer about why ruby is useful. Scripts are not reinstalled by this package if building only from source, the possibility of newer things from a newer installer being overwritten by old from-source versions is alluded to, perhaps obliquely, in the text on the typesetting page. Use TEXARCH instead of hard-coding x86_64-linux. <more rude words> I put the nodump on the xindy install. That is supposed to be the default. Remeasured for 7.6 : I have a space measurement for building from install-tl-unx but I have ignored it as non-preferred (and the SBU was essentially the same). ĸen -- Nanny Ogg usually went to bed early. After all, she was an old lady. Sometimes she went to bed as early as 6 a.m.
