Not too sure about that. It seems likely that teTeX and TeX-live packages will have to conflict with each others. This mean that in order to build a Debian package, you might need to remove you TeX installation and install another one. This is likely to be painful. OTOH, TeX having a very high level of internal compatibility, it might be possible to mix and match, but that might require to split teTeX debian packages in smaller chunk. So does the plan handle that ? Cheers, -- Bill. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Imagine a large red swirl here. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
