Hello,
Please find attached a patch to add texlive to T2. The patch has had
_limited_ testing by emerging on a couple of machines, followed by
compilation of a simple LaTeX file.
The downloads are pretty large and there is this request on the texlive
web-site: "please don't download these from tug.org unless you know you
need them".
The package excludes the texlive manager (tlmgr) because the texlive
creators prefer distro maintainers to use the distro packaging system to
perform updates. In addition, tlmgr, is not likely to work when texlive
is installed in a directory different from the texlive default, as is
the case with this patch.
I have found that 'mine -rf texlive' does not remove the whole
package from /opt. In that case, follow the command by rm -rf
/opt/texlive. Maybe somone will figure out how to fix the patch so
'mine -rf' works.
Finally, I don't know what will happen if texlive is installed along
tetex, which provides the same functionality but is now very outdated,
having been unmaintained for about 3 years.
Caveat emptor.
Cheers,
Roger
(who, after all these disclaimers, should start a new career as a
lawyer)
