[eb38c8a] | 18 | <para>This chapter includes <application>texlive</application> applications that
|
---|
| 19 | create output equivalent to typesetting.</para>
|

| 20 |
|
---|
| 21 | <para>There are two alternative routes through this chapter:</para>
|
---|
| 22 |
|
---|
| 23 | <para>Some people may wish to use the binary installer, either because of the
|
---|
| 24 | complexity of installing all of <application>texlive</application> from
|
---|
| 25 | source, or because they only want a part of the package, or perhaps because
|
---|
| 26 | they wish to get updates as soon as those are available (the source is only
|
---|
[f594857] | 27 | updated annually, but the binaries and associated tex and sty files are updated
|
---|
| 28 | for approximately 10 months). These people should begin at <xref
|
---|
[3f31914] | 29 | linkend="tex-path"/> and then follow the <xref linkend="tl-installer"/>
|
---|
| 30 | instructions,. After installing, they can run
|
---|
[eb38c8a] | 31 | <command>tlmgr</command> to update their system.</para>
|
---|
| 32 |
|
---|
[347e59c] | 33 | <para>Most people reading BLFS will wish to build from source. BLFS used to
|
---|
| 34 | start by installing <application>install-tl-unx</application> and then use that
|
---|
| 35 | to bootstrap the build. Nowadays, we build almost the whole of
|
---|
| 36 | <application>texlive</application> <emphasis>without</emphasis> a binary install,
|
---|
| 37 | by adding the separately-packaged texmf files into this build. For this, begin
|
---|
[3f31914] | 38 | at <xref linkend="tex-path"/> then go to <xref linkend="texlive"/> which will
|
---|
| 39 | install most of
|
---|
[eb38c8a] | 40 | <application>texlive</application>, together with <emphasis>all</emphasis> of the
|
---|
[347e59c] | 41 | supporting files. This almost-complete install can then be used to build the
|
---|
[3f31914] | 42 | remaining parts of <application>texlive</application>: <xref
|
---|
[1e7ef03] | 43 | linkend="asymptote"/>, <xref linkend="biber"/> and <xref linkend="xindy"/>.
|
---|
[347e59c] | 44 | </para>
|
---|
[eb38c8a] | 45 |
|
---|
| 46 | <para>Because the texmf files (including documentation, fonts, scripts and
|
---|
| 47 | supporting files) are all in one tarball, it is not practical to limit what
|
---|
[f594857] | 48 | gets extracted in a sensible way (you could exclude one or other of the
|
---|
| 49 | typesetting engines, not its many supporting files) when building from source
|
---|
| 50 | in this manner.</para>
|
---|
[eb38c8a] | 51 |
|
---|
[347e59c] | 52 | <para>In either case, BLFS installs into
|
---|
[f594857] | 53 | <filename class="directory">/opt/texlive/&texlive-year;</filename>.</para>
|
---|
[04622054] | 54 |
|
---|
[1e7ef03] | 55 | <para>Also, please note that texlive is released annually, and updating from the
|
---|
| 56 | previous year to the current year is no longer supported. If for some reason
|
---|
| 57 | you wish to keep versions for multiple years, for most things you can mount the
|
---|
| 58 | old or new system at /opt/texlive and fix up your PATH as necessary. However
|
---|
| 59 | doing that will not preserve any changes in <filename
|
---|
| 60 | class="directory">texmf-local</filename> and if you build from source and try to
|
---|
| 61 | run a newer version of <application>biber</application> with an older version of
|
---|
| 62 | <application>biblatex</application> it is unlikely to work.</para>
