25 Hi friends,
26
27 Sorry for a small hack to the thread. I tried to emerge latex-beamer.
28 I've app-text/tetex installed in my computer, which is blocking
29 latex-beamer.
30
31 # emerge -pv latex-beamer
32
33 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
34
35 Calculating dependencies... done!
36 [blocks B ] >=app-text/tetex-3.0 (is blocking dev-tex/xcolor-2.00-r1)
37 [blocks B ] >=app-text/tetex-3.0 (is blocking dev-tex/pgf-0.64-r1)
38 [blocks B ] >=app-text/tetex-3.0 (is blocking dev-tex/latex-beamer-3.00-r1)
39 [ebuild N ] dev-tex/xcolor-2.00-r1 455 kB
40 [ebuild N ] dev-tex/pgf-0.64-r1 356 kB
41 [ebuild N ] dev-tex/latex-beamer-3.00-r1 2,482 kB
42
43 Please guide me to install latex-beamer.
