41 <title>Introduction to TeX Live from source</title>
42
43 <para>
44 Most of TeX Live can be built from source without a pre-existing
45 installation, but <application>xindy</application> (for indexing) needs
46 working versions of <command>latex</command> and
47 <command>pdflatex</command> when configure is run, and the testsuite
48 and install for <command>asy</command> (for vector graphics) will fail
49 if TeX has not already been installed. Additionally,
50 <application>biber</application> is not provided within the
51 <application>texlive</application> source and the version of
52 <application>dvisvgm</application> in the
53 <application>texlive</application> tree cannot be built
54 if shared system libraries are used.
55 </para>
56
57 <para>
58 </para>
59 <para>
60 All of those packages are dealt with on their own pages and can be
61 built after installing this package. If you have not already done so, you
62 should start at <xref linkend="tex-path"/> so that the final commands to
63 initialise the new installation will be found.

105 Much of the texlive environment (including scripts, documentation,
106 fonts, and various other files) is not part of the source tarball.
107 You must download it separately. This will give you all of the
108 additional files which are provided by a full install of the binary
109 version, there is no realistic way to restrict which parts get
110 installed.

114 Because of the size of this package, it is unlikely to be mirrored by
