Hi everybody, Starting to try installing correctly tetex3 on ubuntu, I wanted to ask tons of questions. While formatting this mail, I've succeed in installing tetex3. Maybe what follows can be worth fore somebody more noooobie than me (is that possible?), or for a pre-beginner doc.
Following http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TeTeX_3.0_installation and beginning of http://tug.org/teTeX/tetex-src/QuickInstall, i've : dwld * tetex-src.tar.gz & tetex-texmf.tar.gz sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-dist SHIT HAPPENS HERE : it's like i'm missing some basic commands, because if I type what next, term conplains : gzip -dc tetex-texmf.tar.gz \| (umask 0; cd /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-dist; tar xvf -) My guess is cd /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-dist sudo tar xvf /home/olivier/dl/tetex-texmf.tar.gz sudo tar xvf /home/olivier/dl/tetex-src.tar.gz cd tetex-src-3.0/ sudo bash (if not, term complains about configure.log) ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/teTeX >& configure.log make world >& world.log (quite long) exit (from root) cd ~ sudo vim .bash_profile add to it : PATH=/usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu:$PATH;
