I use local overlays (the main one also available on GitHub) more than |
| 8 |
going outside Portage. But it occurred to me that I also install |
| 9 |
calibre outside of Portage, in /usr/local; it’s notorious for not |
| 10 |
working when repackaged. And I do have parts of TeXLive installed by |
| 11 |
Portage because they get pulled in, but if I actually want to use TeX |
| 12 |
I have the real, complete TeXLive distribution installed in my home. |
