Description

To replace the obselete tetex package, we need to to use Texlive.

Some things:

  • There are 4 tarballs, src, texmf, bin, and extra. They are all compressed with LZMA, so, for that, LZMA needs to be in the book.
  • There is a shell script that takes care of configure and make for you: Build.
  • It comes with it's own versions of things, like texinfo, lzma, etc... We need to disable these for a cleaner build.
  • xindy needs Clisp and libffcall, two things not in the book.
  • Fontconfig needs to be there for xtetex.
  • X11 is needed for a few utils.
