Dear Fink developers,

We have managed to update TeX Live to the latest version (2010),
and now it seems a time to test it publicly!

If you would like to test it, checkout the finkinfos as follows:

$ cvs -d :pserver:anonym...@fink.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/fink checkout -P 
-d text experimental/todai/ecc-10.4/main/finkinfo/text

and copy them to your local finkinfo tree
(maybe /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo).

Please be sure the unstable tree is enabled. Then

$ fink seflupdate
$ script -q texlive.bldlog fink build texlive
$ script -q texlive.instlog fink install texlive

Your any positive/negative feedbacks, reports, advices and comments
are welcome. To save time, EXPLICIT patches with your explanation
are very appreciated.

Some desirous check points:

* Build/Install (of course) and Update from a current texlive
 I've tested only on 10.6/32bit, clean env, so I'm not sure whether
 it works on other env.

* Conflicts/Replaces/Provides
 In this version, almost all packages are build in TeX Live's src,
 and some binaries/files may conflict with existing packages.
 (Current texlive-base actually conflicts with ps2eps. :p )

* New package: detex, xetex, ptex, dvipdfmx, jadetex
 As a big difference from before, some new packages are included
 in this version. If you are familiar with these software, please
 test them.


Thank you for your cooperation.

Tomoaki Okayama
