I have been busy all the summer! Is there any news about the TeXLive ebuild? |
| 2 |

About the texmf tree, is there really many packages that would be included in |
| 4 |
each distributions? Would a modular ebuild system like the one used by Gnome |
| 5 |
(emerge gnome and emerge gnome-lite) and X.org would be nice for TeXLive? Each |
| 6 |
packages in the texmf tree could be updated independently if needed and the |
| 7 |
packages like beamer could be also included in the dependencies. |
