Greetings regarding texlive2011 installation:-
(A) this page http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/cvs/pst/texlive.html says:- Note If you passed the option --enable-shared to the configure command, the two libraries, ibkpathsea.so, libptexenc.so and their symbolic links will also need to be copied to /usr/lib However it does not say how this is done , i.e the destination directory for libkpathsea.so and libptexenc.so I have also checked this page:- http://www.tug.org/texlive/doc/install-tl.html Bu I am still unsure what the directory structure of /opt/texlive is and thus where the libraries mentioned above go. -------- (B) The latter link also mentioned calling 'install-tl' with the "-custom-bin path" switch which says:- { If you have built your own binaries for your system (probably because your platform was not supported by TeX Live out of the box), this option allows you to give the path to a directory where the binaries for the current system are present. The installation will continue as usual, but at the end all files from path are copied over to bin/custom in your installation folder and this directory will be added to the path for the post-install actions { Does this mean that we could do a normal make install without the make DESTDIR=$PWD/livetex-tmp install mentioned on former link? ################## Advice on (A) and (B) would be appreciated.
