Thanks, Scott. You mentioned in your announcement: It provides the following features: - installs TeX Live 2013 - notifies apt so that apt does not try to install the Ubuntu texlive-* packages as dependencies (e.g. if you do sudo apt-get install lyx) - installs (optionally) additional LaTeX files for common journals that are not included in TeX Live 2013 - links to the folder where Ubuntu installs TeX files so that when you install Ubuntu packages (e.g. FoilTeXand noweb) with LaTeX files, they will be available It can optionally install the TeX dependencies for all of LyX's templates and examples. It can be downloaded from here: https://github.com/scottkosty/install-tl-ubuntu #### Question: if I have installed texlive2013 from the DVD can I - installs (optionally) additional LaTeX files for common journals that are not included in TeX Live 2013 by another way and from where?
