I really don't think that the solution is "don't install both MATLAB and TeX Live". I administrate a graduate lab, and when we switch over to Edgy, we will need both texlive-full *and* MATLAB, and I don't think we're alone.
Since /usr/bin/mex is only used by the Polish TeX support (ha! "TeX support"!), the solution is for Polish TeX to call its binary something else. -- texlive-lang-polish fails to install if MATLAB/octave-forge present https://launchpad.net/bugs/61914 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
