No progress yet. I’ve been meaning to work on this, but it’s pretty tedious and demands concentration, which is a quality I haven’t been able to maintain. For most *packages* needing a subset of TeX live we can use “texlive-union” as an input instead. For user profiles, “texlive-union” is not the right tool. > What's the intended TeXlive installation process then? Currently, the recommended way to get TeX live is to install the huge “texlive” package. “texlive-union” was only meant to be used as an input in packages that require a subset of TeX live. It cannot yet be used in a profile. > Let me know if I there is anything I can help with. We need a profile hook that builds the configuration file and sets environment variables whenever a texlive-* package is contained in a profile. The behaviour would be similar to “texlive-union”. -- Ricardo
