Once ruby was emerged, texlive installed pretty much without any MAJOR |
| 2 |
incident. On the #gentoo irc channel, the advice was received to unmask |
| 3 |
ruby 1.9. There seems to be some variation in how this is done, but |
| 4 |
that's basically all I needed to do. |

I've installed texlive from upstream source various times, without any |
| 15 |
major issue. It's a heck of a lot better than tetex used to be. |

I did find it difficult to figure out how to install texlive on Gentoo this |
| 32 |
time around, though. Seems a good howto is needed. This time around, I |
| 33 |
bascially just started emerging (emerge texlive) and after all the bumps |
| 34 |
and twists and turns, eventually I'd figured out that USE flags were |
| 35 |
needed. I hadn't seen that at first, even though I've installed texlive |
| 36 |
on Gentoo before, a couple or three years ago. |
