Packaging TeXLive needs some scripting to split tex packages by groups,
otherwise you get a >= 1.5GB blob to install at once.
1.5GB sound way too big but it is indeed also the size that is reported in
http://tug.org/texlive/distro.html for Slackware and Debian.
Slackware t series texlive 2020 is only 76 MB.
I think the Debian Sciences team had developed such scripts to maintain their
packages.
Presumably the Slackware small size is also the result of a lot packaging work.
True! I do have my own script for Solaris, that does exactly the same
thing. This is the result:
pkg://bb-c/bbc/application/[email protected],5.11:20150514T171548Z
pkg://bb-c/bbc/application/texlive/[email protected],5.11:20150514T222435Z

Disadvantage is that this a large set of packages.
To keep it simple maybe OI could only provide just 1 simple,
small texlive package, of about 75 MB like Slackware does.
Also question is whether FMRI would be application/texlive
or whether to put TeX in its own folder like tex/texlive.

way to tex.
