I am following the mailing lists quite closely, and I haven't seen anyone declaring a firm intention to make such packages. The latest thing close to such an intention was a post by Max Horn on this list back in May 2008 in a discussion in which you participated. This was not about real texlive packages, only a virtual package that allowed to use a self-installed texlive instead of Fink's texmf packages. Is this still what you intend to create? Nothing came of that discussion, anyway. Otherwise there were discussions on the fink-beginners list, in April and August 2008, for example. What was pointed out is that both debian and macports have (full, not ony virtual) texlive packages that could be studied as recipes for making Fink packages, but that this would require hard work. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
