Installing Tetex packages now
What is the simple procedure to install additional Tetex packages now? Been about 2000 since I used LaTeX a lot and I find that wrapfig is the way to wrap text around a figure these days, so I'd like to use it. Is there any aptitude/apt-get equivalent and what was/is the installation update command? T.I.A. I'll probably work it out again in another week, but it isn't coming back to me too fast.

just like the old days (TeTeX to TeXLive)
Lord, so I decided to upgrade my laptop (a Lenovo T60) to testing/lenny so as to try out TeXLive and suddenly found myself in one of those linux weekends of long ago (which I've never been sure if I missed or not) when you're up to the wee hours searching through the archives of mailing-lists, and hand-compiling kernel modules, and re-writing beautifully hand-crafted configuration files and so on. The upgrade to Xorg meant that my ATI card would no longer do direct rendering; so I upgraded to the 2.6.24 kernel and that fixed the problem with direct rendering, but now none of my wireless cards (all of which worked beautifully before) work at all. But the problem I'm most anxious to solve at present has to do with the change from TeTeX to TeXLive. I have some fonts hand-installed in /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/ (Adobe Minion) which I use more or less constantly. All worked very well before, but following the upgrade, TeX can no longer find them. Or to be more exact, dvips (or xdvi or pdflatex) calls kpathsea, which calls mktexpk, which complains: don't know how to create bitmap font for LY1-MinionPro-BoldDisp-kern-liga-onum-base The fonts are installed in /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts and /usr/local/share/texmf/ is the value of $TEXLOCAL. Previous upgrades (within the tetex framework) have always handled this without difficulty. Is there a kind soul here who could point me in a useful direction with this problem? Is there something very different as between TeTeX and TeXLive about how locally installed fonts are handled?

The fonts are installed in /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts and
/usr/local/share/texmf/ is the value of $TEXLOCAL.
Previous upgrades (within the tetex framework) have always handled
this without difficulty.
Run the following two commands and post the output:
find /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/ -type f | while read FILE; do
BASENAME=${FILE##*/}; echo checking $BASENAME: $(kpsewhich $BASENAME); done
find /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/ -name \*.map | while read FILE; do grep
${FILE##*/} /var/lib/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg; done
(I tested this in bash; I have no idea if it will work in other shells.)

Thank you for helping. This produced output that, I think, is too
large to post here (1066 lines). But it certainly listed the .tfm
files for the Minion fonts, along with the .vf files, and the .pfb
files, all of which are in: /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/

Jadetex likely depends on tetex anyway, why not let apt sort out the dependancy. I.e. don't tell it to install tetex-base. However, just to be sure, send your /etc/apt/sources.list.

I just upgraded from Etch to Lenny, and have loads of things to fix, keeping tetex from upgrading to texlive will sure ease the transition for the moment. You should put your tetex packages on hold: # aptitude hold tetex-base tetex-bin tetex-extra Then try aptitude -s dist-upgrade. If that would still pull in texlive, you are bitten by bug #434731: aptitude will ignore the hold if a package that is _not_ put on hold can only be upgraded by upgrading a package that _is_ on hold. But hopefully that will not be the case. The migration to texlive will pull in many hundred of megabytes if you have tetex-extra installed. In that case I would recommend to use aptitude's TUI to uninstall it and manually select the texlive packages you want (look in the dependencies of texlive-full). This is how I managed the transition without pulling in too much stuff. Hope this helps, Sven -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

What to install to get a working latex system? texlive or tetex?
Hey guys, I searched the mailing list for answers to the texlive vs tetex issues. The answers seems to be that texlive is the newer for updated distribution for tex and latex documents. Thus, I installed the 'texlive-latex-base' package and was a happy camper. Latex was working fine. However, the issue now comes up when I need additional latex packages such as being able to use the \includegraphics command which is a part of package graphicx for latex. So I decided to install the package 'texlive-latex-extra'. However, aptitude complains about dependencies and proposes a solution to remove the previous texlive packages I have installed and instead goes ahead and wants to install tetex-bin, tetex-base, etc. Anyone have similar experiences? Any suggestions? Thanks for your time, Amit -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

tetex and texlive: changes in Debian?
Hello, Since a couple of days, if I upgrade my Debian Testing machine, I see that a whole bunch of texlive* packages are to be installed, many of them new and a few hundreds of additional disk space is to be used. Are there any changes going on in Latex packages in Testing these days? Do I need both tetex and texlive packages? And, finally, what's the relation between these two kind of packages? thanks, -HS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Are there any changes going on in Latex packages in Testing these days? tetex is old and deprecated, texlive is its successor. In the long run, all the debian packages will be migrated to texlive from tetex. The transition has been announced sometime back on http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2007/04/msg6.html . Only recently the texlive packages started to trickle into testing from unstable. I also suggest to subscribe to debian-devel-announce to keep abreast of these kind of transitions. Do I need both tetex and texlive packages? And, finally, what's the relation between these two kind of packages? Most likely you need only texlive packages in the long run. hth raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

You don't need both versions, and eventually only Texlive will be available. Presumably, if you just let apt handle all the upgrades you will probably find that you no longer have tetex by the time Etch goes stable, and all packages have been replaced by texlive. Or something like that. If you search the list you'll find several threads about people switching from tetex to texlive now, which is generally painless.

BartlebyScrivener wrote: I've seen a few threads where some folks have had trouble installing live tex. What is the current status of this under Etch? Etch is stable. So packages under it does not change except for security upgrade. So there is no question of this transition under Etch. However if you are running testing, please wait for couple more days till texlive 2007-10 descends into testing and then you can upgrade to it. If you are running sid, I think most of the bugs that arised when transitioning from tetex to texlive have been fixed. So mostly you should be fine upgrading from tetex to texlive. However check the BTS before upgrading. Is the recommended procedure to remove tetex first? Or can they coexist? Do not remove any tetex packages by yourself. Let apt take care of the conflicts. It is better to stick with texlive instead of having both. I use Synaptic mainly.

TeTex to TeXLive
Hey all, So recently, occasionally when upgrading (I use Lenny) I've had to remove some TeX component or other because it now won't depend on TeTeX. So I suppose that that means it's time to get with the program and upgrade to TeXLive, since it actually updates, but I've also heard tell that people experience big problems when moving over from TeTeX instead of just installing TeXLive onto a system without any former TeX installation. Is there some safe way of moving over? Also, (very importantly) does AUCTeX work with TeXLive? Thanks, Amy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

(ie. non-standard .bst, .bib, .cls files) into the right directories
(another thread on this list in the last month or two has the details
of that). Doing an apt{get,itude} purge of the tetex stuff before
installing texlive is probably a good idea.
Also, (very importantly) does AUCTeX work with TeXLive?
Once I got texlive installed I had no problems with Auctex.

If you have non-standard files you should put them in ~/texmf and then run
texhash ~/texmf.
This way they survive whatever update you've got and the hash is local so I
didn't have to rerun texhash after the update
Getting XeTeX to run to some more work, but that is irrelevant to the question
since tetex doesn't have XeTeX (good utf and truetype font support)

Re: TeTex to TeXLive
* Amy Templeton [EMAIL PROTECTED] [070507 13:49]: ... its time to get with the program and upgrade to TeXLive, since it actually updates, but I've also heard tell that people experience big problems when moving over from TeTeX instead of just installing TeXLive onto a system without any former TeX installation. Is there some safe way of moving over? Also, (very importantly) does AUCTeX work with TeXLive? Running Etch, I upgraded from teTeX to TeXLive, but the system was unusable. Later someone told me that I should have purged the teTeX files, rather than simply loading TeXLive over teTeX. Meanwhile, I installed Lenny and installed TeXLive as the first and only TeX system. I also installed AucTeX. Everything appears to work perfectly. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

So just putting a .bst file in ~/texmf and running mktexlsr (=texhash?) didn't work. It needed to be in ~/texmf/bibtex/bst/. Anyways, the rest works out fine.

Good, good, good stuff. So now that's one less thing to worry about later (whenever TeTeX is removed in favor of TeXLive).

Damn, I just went through the same thing, but I think it might be avoidable. I used aptitude to install texlive, which automatically uninstalled the core tetex stuff. I couldn't get latex to work from the command line or through auctex, so I tried a couple variations of purge and reinstall. Eventually I realised that it was hung up on a directory that somehow was not purged when I cleaned out tetex: ~/.texmf-var I moved that to .texmf-var-old, and now it seems to be working ok.

Re: TeTeX et Etch
Hello toutes et tous, Ben, je ne suis pas dans la merde alors : # dpkg -L tetex-bin | grep 35 ^ euh, c’est censé être dans tetex-base, pas -bin... Bon, semblerait que cela ait été releasée un peu vite cette Etch... Déjà, pour Sarge, TeTeX était foireux... je n'ai pas de bol :( je ne fréquente pas Tetex :-) je ne peux guère vous aider... Par contre il y a eu cette annonce en nangliche que je copie/colle en espérant que cela serve ! Dear fellow developers, the Debian TeX Task force is currently preparing an upload of TeX Live 2007 to unstable. With this version, teTeX will vanish as a separate package and only continue to exist as transitional packages. teTeX has been abandoned upstream. TeX Live, which uses most of the scripts developed for teTeX, is its successor in Debian (and elsewhere), and we do not plan to support both systems beyond the lifetime of etch. The transitional packages were designed to give users a sensible choice of TeX stuff, depending on whether they had tetex-extra or only tetex-bin installed. They were *not* designed to minimize breakage for packages which build-depend on teTeX: Be therefore prepared to experience some breakage. Note that many packages use a TeX system to create PS or PDF documenation even if they do not explicitly Build-Depend on tetex, by using debiandoc-sgml, linuxdoc-tools-latex or similar converters. If you experience FTBFS problems (or, in the worst case, missing or buggy documents if the build system is too lazy in checking its results, or font substitutions occured), please send X-Debbugs-CC to [EMAIL PROTECTED] We plan to use the usertags builddep-tetex-ftbfs and builddep-tetex-buggy for those cases (for the user [EMAIL PROTECTED]). HOWTO fix you package: There is no simple receipe for finding out which texlive packages are needed. For the case of using TeX at package build time, the best approach is probably to try it out[1]. The same is true for packages which generate LaTeX code. For other cases, it's up to the maintainer to decide which dependencies are needed, and maybe which Recommends. You can always ask on the list. For the TeX Task Force, Frank [1] Ideally one should also compare the resulting DVI or PDF files and look for font problems, in particular Type 3 fonts. pdffonts from xpdf-utils is handy for that. -- Dr. Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f.

Re: TeTeX et Etch
Patrice Karatchentzeff, mercredi 11 avril 2007, 18:20:53 CEST Salut, ’soir, J'ai toutes les peines du monde à faire la transition de TeX de Sarge vers Etch. Même en purgeant totalement mon ancienne installation (ce qui est un comble pour une migration...), impossible d'installer TeTeX : [...] updmap-sys: Scanning for LW35 support files !!! ERROR! The map file `dvips35.map' has not been found at all. Either put this file into the right place or remove the reference from the configuration files - see update-updmap(1). [...] Une idée avant que je rétroporte l'ancienne version ? Sur une Sid (mais, d’après ‹apt-cache policy›, ce sont les mêmes versions pour Etch) : $ apt-file search dvips35.map tetex-base: usr/share/texmf-tetex/fonts/map/dvips/tetex/dvips35.map tetex-base: usr/share/texmf-tetex/fonts/map/dvips/tetex/dvips35.map tetex-base: usr/share/texmf-tetex/fonts/map/dvips/tetex/dvips35.map texlive-base-bin: usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/map/dvips/tetex/dvips35.map texlive-base-bin: usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/map/dvips/tetex/dvips35.map texlive-base-bin: usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/map/dvips/tetex/dvips35.map Le fichier doit normalement exister. Pour info, d’après locate, c’est la seule apparition de dvips35.map. Des modifs dans tes fichiers de conf que ta purge n’auraient pas effacer ? Des problèmes avec le FS ? -- Sylvain Sauvage
