I usually sync my computers at home and work like so:
tlmgr install $(ssh u...@host.tld tlmgr list --only-installed |awk
'print $2}|sed s/://g')
or rather
tlmgr install $(ssh u...@host.tld tlmgr list --only-installed | awk
'{gsub(/:/, ""); print $2}')
but the latter require the GNU awk from Honebrew.
greetings, el
