I more or less finished reconciling my texlive installation with
the other fink tex pkgs I have installed. Here are a couple
of notes I took (for purging pkgs from fink, or putting
proper Provides , Replaces, Conflicts .. were needed) :
A) superseded pkgs : same version installed by texlive
ifmslide pdfsync latex-figbib cm-super breqn pdfscreen (fink pkg
installs more pdf files _
but those have anyway no place in a texinputs dir) unicode-tex (much
more complete in texlive)
srcltx (but again, this skinny texlive doesn't have the doc (.pdf))
B) same or newer versions istalled by texlive
ctan-supported-misc ctan-other-misc (missing the obsolete cea.sty
gdgspace.sty and raggedr.sty)
C) newer version installed by fink pkg (really need an up to date
version of texlive!)
movie15 preview-latex (+: texlive doesn't install the doc ! _ info
file etc) tex4ht
D) pdfslide : same version installed by texlive _ except for
a) pause.sty : this is good, because because this was always
a source of complications with ppower4, which ships an up-to-date
version of pause.sty, while pdfslide ships the initial version
b) demo.pdf manual.tex meta.mp mpgraph.pdf : those had no place
in a texinputs dir, should belong somewhere in a doc dir or the like
_ and the current minimal version of texlive doesn't have this.
E) jadetex would sure be also included in a (up-to-date!) full-texlive
E) MISC :
- ec-fonts-mftraced should take care to add its map to updmap.cfg,
and run updmap. And no fd or sty file needed ??
- duplicate dirs in texlive-texmf: bibtex/bst/{figbib,latex-figbib}
Make one a link to the other.
- latin9.def should be purged from latex2html: it belongs to latex/
base !
And is much more recent there! Similarly for D. Arsenau's url.sty (in
ltxmisc)
(although a still more recent version is available since 3 years!)
Best,
Jean-Francois
