Installing Latex tex-live
Hello all,
I'm trying to install texlive-20091107-source. I've compiled the programs and installed them in a folder in my home. I ran texconfig and got it to rebuild the filename databases. However, when I try to use pdftex to turn a .tex file into a .pdf it says: Code:
andy:~$ pdftex example1.tex Code:
pdftex -ini -fmt=pdftex plain \\dump Code:
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (Web2C 2009) (INITEX) |

However, I was very surprised how much it configured during the installation. I can only imagine how complicated the build process would be... You don't mention in what distribution you were working. If you have access to Debian or a Debian based system like Ubuntu you could always build from the Debian source package and install. There you can see the whole process carried out in the correct order. Even if the available Debian package might be somewhat older than the one you are trying to build, chances are that the build and installation process has not drastically changed. (Probably the same trick works for rpm based systems) |
