XeTeX
Hey,
Has anyone had any success in creating a package from the XeTeX sources? It comes with a custobm uild-xetex and install-xetex rather than the standard configure; make; make install. I use src2pkg and trackinstall to make packages but simply running trackinstall -i='sh install-xetex' doesn't do the trick. I ended up building a package using the -JAIL option but it doesn't work properly. Any tips? |
Hmm, I haven't tried to package XeTeX but install the whole TexLive distribution which contain ready-to-run XeTeX and it's dependencies. It will install all the stuffs into /usr/local/texlive by default and is rather easy to remove. The only side effect is to download a 2.4GB DVD image. You could have a try.

Is texlive much bigeer in size than tetex?
I wonder if its gonna replace it in slackware at some point.. |

I looked into texlive but it didn't look much more straightforward to install than XeTeX. If there's a script for compiling I'd like to take a look at it though. Thanks for all the answers B.

XeTeX leaves a filelist with the install result
in 'xetex-0.996/Work/xetex-installed-files' So I made a textfile in /var/log/packages from that : Quote:
(got it from Vector Linux ?) to create a package. pkgtool2, a "new" link here http://web.grizmin.org/linux/pkgtools/ Dead link ? Worked 2009 , not working now, 2010. Well then, found this http://www.filewatcher.com/b/ftp/ftp.../RPMS.2.3.html ftp://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/.SAN0/pub/l...0.9-1.i386.rpm ..... |
Thanks for the SlackBuild and for the XeTeX install tip.
