Hi,
when installing (i installed the minimals on a friends new machine) the
check for ruby is somewhat anoying when one uses only luatex and not texexec
and no ruby is needed
how about moving the test to the end of the instal script and just issue a
warning at the end
Hello Hans,
That code has most probably been written by you, so I'm not guilty ... :) :) :)
There's one thing, namely: if one doesn't have ruby and wants to
install pdftex, then the warning needs to go to the beginning else
formats won't be generated, but the whole downloading process could
still take place.
If one only wants to install luatex then there's definitely no need to
interrupt the run.
I can remove the warning, but do you have any idea if there's some way
to check in batch if user provided --engine=luatex option? Or does
anyone else have a better idea?
To Hans: on your friend's machine you can easily remove those three
lines that issue the warning (they will never be overwritten), but I
agree that this should be fixed (once luatex becomes stable at least
:P). I'm just open to best suggestion.
well, i' dsay .. move to the end .. then issue a message that one needs
to download ruby if using pdftex/xetex and then run the script again
(does not hurt)
after all, one wants to install so already downloading is no big deal
Hans
