This program is meant to ease the installation of TeX Live 2013 on Ubuntu versions 12.04 and later. To use, simply run
sudo ./install-tl-ubuntu It provides the following features: - installs TeX Live 2013 - notifies apt so that apt does not try to install the Ubuntu texlive-* packages as dependencies (e.g. if you do sudo apt-get install lyx) - installs (optionally) additional LaTeX files for common journals that are not included in TeX Live 2013 - links to the folder where Ubuntu installs TeX files so that when you install Ubuntu packages (e.g. FoilTeXand noweb) with LaTeX files, they will be available It can optionally install the TeX dependencies for all of LyX's templates and examples. It can be downloaded from here: https://github.com/scottkosty/install-tl-ubuntu Best, Scott
