[arch-dev-public] TeXLive 2011 pretest
TeXLive 2011 is in pre-testing phase. Experimental builds of texlive-bin will be found in http://pkgbuild.com/~remy/texlive-experimental/ Current issues are: - no install script for texlive-bin where it should run "mktexlsr" and "fmtutil-sys --all" - dangling symlinks, due to new scripts appearing in texlive-* - segfaulting luatex, so I guess I'll keep with compiling it separately - no biblatex-biber. TeXLive only provide a binary that bundles Perl + all dependencies. I plan to adopt biblatex-biber from AUR for that and add it as an optional dependency of texlive-core. However, it comes with a very unusual set of dependencies. We can only blame François for being a great Perl enthusiast. Once upstream seems stable (they say ConTeXt is currently broken), and the PKGBUILDs reach a final form, packages will hit [testing]. Regards, -- Rémy.

I have pushed packages to [testing]. Some notes: * on installation, fmtutil-sys will spew a nerror saying that "eptex" format was not generated. I guess it means eptex will not work unless someone finds a fix. * biblatex-biber is not packaged, you can use the package from AUR in the meanwhile. * other issues I mentioned are closed, except maybe ConTeXt. Don't hesitate to report any problems. Rémy.
