44 <para>
45 Most of TeX Live can be built from source without a pre-existing
46 installation, but <application>xindy</application> (for indexing) needs
47 working versions of <command>latex</command> and
48 <command>pdflatex</command> when configure is run, and the testsuite
49 and install for <command>asy</command> (for vector graphics) will fail
50 if TeX has not already been installed. Additionally,
51 <application>biber</application> is not provided within the
52 <application>texlive</application> source and the version of
53 <application>dvisvgm</application> in the
54 <application>texlive</application> tree cannot be built
55 if shared system libraries are used.

61 All of those packages are dealt with on their own pages and can be
62 built after installing this package. If you have not already done so, you
63 should start at <xref linkend="tex-path"/> so that the final commands to
64 initialise the new installation will be found.

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