Thanks for the update. So is it safe to remove the install files from tex 
packages now? AFAICS the following packages are affected:

extra/asymptote
extra/gnuplot
extra/latex2html
extra/r
community/auctex
community/hevea
community/sagetex

Done.

I have also removed verbosity in the hooks. They is still an install
script for texlive-bin and texlive-core because rebuilding the formats
file has a dependency on the hooks being run.

I need more work to move the format files to a framework like the
"maps" files, so that they are also managed by hooks (it will also
remove potential warnings and instabilities during install/upgrades).

It seems that texlive-bin was mistakenly pushed to [extra] following
the poppler rebuild.

I need to push all the other packages to [extra] because quite a
number of users are broken now.

I noticed that there's an mktexlsr hook now, but texlive-bin still runs it
post_install and post_upgrade.

Perhaps you should add "Target = usr/bin/mktexlsr" to the hook? Then it
will run after texlive-bin install and upgrade, too.

Also, please keep the output of the hooks clear—only errors should be
reported. For the mktexlsr script, remove the echo and the -v flag from rm
in the mktexlsr script. Perhaps the commands it calls also need to be
quieted (via arguments or redirects), but don't do so if it suppresses all
errors, too. The font map hook needs a similar treatment.

Thanks for your work on TeXLive!

I have updated the packages to remove the "biber" utility from
texlive-bin (which is now 16MB smaller), because it is now built in a
more appropriate ay as a separate package (now in
[community-testing]).

I plan to move the packages to [extra] before the end of the month.

Rémy.

Can I obtain access to [community] ?
biber has lots of dependencies in [community], I suppose it should not
be put in [extra] for this reason.

Most other Perl dependencies are pushed to [testing] and will be moved
to [extra].

I will add them today, that's about 23 Perl packages that need to be
added, 12 of them come from AUR.

[arch-dev-public] New TeXLive 2016 packages in [testing]

[Rémy Oudompheng via arch-dev-public]

Hello,

I have published new TeXLive packages for the 2016 release in [testing].
The structure of the packages has been left unchanged (e.g. no introduction
of pacman hooks).

Feel free to test them and notify me of any problem or weirdness.

Cheers,
Rémy.
