Even LTS distros have backports, don't they? The question is always: what is more important, the distro or the package? TeXLive is so big and I use it so much that installing a new version manually once a year off the DVD is worth it. Anything Haskell-based is nicer to install via cabal. For everything else I stick to a distro (and yes, I have strong preference for LTS in that case). ------------------------------- [email protected] mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
