No thanks. Don't we have all of TeX Live packaged already? Wouldn't
using this conflict with the packages we already have?
I guess I wasn't clear enough in the footnote when I said I would
disable some features of tlmgr. What I meant was that I would disable
the features that deal with package management. But tlmgr does other
things that could be useful (like managing default paper size), and I
would like to make those things work on Cygwin.
texlive uses libpaper, so can paperconf be used for managing paper size?
Anyway, I'm pretty sure that Fedora does not ship tlmgr. You may wish
to check the other major distros and see if they do, and if so what
modifications they made.
