     50          <para>[ken] -  Changes to the configuration switches and details for
     51          building TeX Live from source.  This completes the major work for
     52          <ulink url="&blfs-ticket-root;4647">#4647</ulink> but details re the
     53          installer&apos;s runtime dependencies, and for building asy and xindy,
     54          remain to be investigated.  A big Thank You to Greg Nietsky for
     55          raising this and providing details.</para>
