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,
80 fonts and various other files) is not part of the source tarball. You must
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
