Nope, it is intentional. It is needed to somehow distinguish the
noarch and arch-dependent part. So package texlive-csplain contains
the noarch bits and texlive-csplain.ARCH ships the binaries.
Wouldn't it be better to have texlive-csplain%{_isa} shipping the arch
dependent bits and a texlive-csplain-common.noarch shipping the arch
independent stuff? That would be more in line with other packages.
Hmm, this is even better idea. It was not originally possible in the
first designed TL packaging scheme (noarch and binary bits were
created from one src.rpm what prevented arch/noarch package named in
the same way) but now it is actually possible because binaries are built
separately.
Thanks,
Jindrich

TeX Live 2009 for Fedora
Hi, TeX Live 2009 pretest is now available via external repository for testing in Fedora: rpm -Uhv http://jnovy.fedorapeople.org/texlive/texlive-release-2009-0.1.fc11.noarch.rpm Maybe a good idea is to start directly with TeX Live 2009 in Fedora because TL 2008 has different package set and TL 2009 contains newest packages and will likely be released this year.

It's working now :) When you'll do the upgrade in Fedora proper, it might be a good idea to clear /var/lib/texmf then (via the packages)... You might want to add: csplain pdfetex - -etex -enc csplain-utf8.ini cslatex pdfetex - -etex -enc cslatex-utf8.ini in /usr/share/texlive/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf instead of the links to cp227.tcx translate-file. Thanks, that did the job. I noticed during the time I tried to make csplain working that removing and re-adding the texlive-csplain package adds to this file lots of garbage which make csplain format generation not working... You'll get lines like: csplain pdftex - -extex -translate-file=cp227.tcx cslatex.ini pdftex - -extex -translate-file=cp227.tcx cslatex.ini and so on Would be worth fixing, even though it's a corner case... Anyway, after installing some (which looked like I'd might need them) collections and texlive-bbm, I was able to successfully build my Bachelors' thesis (it's about general relativity, and it uses pretty pretty much everything I've ever tried with TeX, so the coverage is rather good), so I can say that (cs)plain (utf8) works in TexLive 2009 well.

And before that we can help with testing :) One more issue: some packages (like R, for example) still depend on tetex-latex, which I guess used to be a virtual provide of texlive but is now gone. What's the plan for dealing with this? Here's the full list of things that require tetex-latex according to repoquery: a2ps-0:4.14-8.fc11.x86_64 asymptote-0:1.70-1.fc11.x86_64 fig2ps-0:1.3.6-4.fc11.noarch hevea-0:1.10-3.fc11.x86_64 HippoDraw-0:1.21.1-9.fc11.x86_64 ipe-0:6.0-0.29.pre30.fc11.x86_64 jadetex-0:3.13-5.fc11.noarch mediawiki-math-0:1.14.0-45.fc11.x86_64 pdfjam-0:1.21-1.fc11.noarch pyscript-0:0.6.1-4.fc11.noarch R-devel-0:2.9.0-2.fc11.x86_64 tetex-bytefield-0:1.2a-5.fc11.noarch tetex-dvipost-0:1.1-10.fc11.x86_64 tetex-elsevier-0:0.1.20071024-2.fc11.noarch tetex-IEEEtran-0:1.7.1-2.fc11.noarch tetex-perltex-0:1.7-2.fc11.noarch tetex-prosper-0:1.5-5.fc11.noarch texmaker-1:1.8-2.fc11.x86_64 These packages should be updated to require tex(latex). Right. These packages need to be updated to reflect the newly introduced virtual provides. The reason of adding virtual provides was to make packages not dependent on a praticular TeX distribution. These virtual provides, such as tex(tex), tex(latex) or tex(xetex) were added at the beginning of the year 2008 so it works at least for Fedora 9 and higher. We should file bugs for these packages.

How do you handle installation of
texlive-scheme-*
since the schemes are overlapping? AFAIR rpm does not allow sharing
pf files?
Schemes and collections are generated as meta-packages, not really
shipping any files, but dependent on required collections and
packages. Here is a sample of scheme-context for example:
%package scheme-context
Summary: ConTeXt scheme
Version: %{tl_version}
Release: 13822%{?dist}
BuildArch: noarch
Requires: texlive = %{tl_version}
Requires: texlive-collection-context
Requires: texlive-collection-metapost
Requires: texlive-xetex
Requires: texlive-tex-gyre
Requires: texlive-antt
Requires: texlive-antp
Requires: texlive-iwona
Requires: texlive-kurier
Requires: texlive-lm
Provides: tex(context)
So even though collections and packages do overlap in schemes we have
no conflicts :) By installing a wider scheme only missing packages are
installed.
Jindrich
Best wishes
Norbert
