38 <title>Introduction to TeX Live from source</title>
39
40 <para>Most of TeX Live can be built from source without a pre-existing
41 installation, but <application>xindy</application> (for indexing) needs
42 working versions of <command>latex</command> and <command>pdflatex</command>
43 when configure is run, and the testsuite and install for
44 <command>asy</command> (for vector graphics) will fail if TeX has not
45 already been installed. Additionally, <application>biber</application> is
46 not provided within the <application>texlive</application> source.</para>
47
48 <para>All of those packages are dealt with on their own pages and can be
49 built after installing this package. If you have not already done so, you
50 should start at <xref linkend="tex-path"/> so that the final commands to
51 initialise the new installation will be found.</para>

79 <para>Much of the texlive environment (including scripts, documentation,

81 download it separately. This will give you all of the additional files
82 which are provided by a full install of the binary version, there is no

162 <para>
163 From 2015 onwards, a successful install requires some texlive

292 <command>make texlinks</command> : this runs the texlinks.sh script
293 to create symbolic links from formats to engines. In

300 the tarball contains the files for the texmf-dist directory, and because
301 of its size we do not want to waste time and space untarring it and then
302 copying the files.

306 <command>patch -Np1 -i /sources/texlive-&texlive-version;-texmf...</command>:
307 This fixes various problems in epstopdf which were found after the source
308 was released and are included in the binary installer. Because this is
309 applied to the installated texmf (to minimise disk space) it is necessary
310 to point to /sources instead of using ../

313 <para>
314 <command>install -v -m644 ../texk/tests/TeXLive/*

316 modules <filename>TLConfig.pm</filename> and <filename>TLUtils.pm</filename>
317 into the directory where the binary installer puts them - it is at the
318 start of the perl @INC@ PATH within texlive when installed using the above
319 configure switches. Without these modules, texlive is unusable.
