Basically all you have to do is to install your preferred flavor of texlive from ports and it will just work.[1] If by texlive you mean the one supplied by https://tug.org/texlive, you can use the custom binary set build by Nelson Beebe. Instructions on how to do this can be found here: https://tug.org/texlive/custom-bin.html and you will find Nelson Beebe's binary sets for OpenBSD here: https://ftp.math.utah.edu/pub/texlive-utah/bin/ Once this is done, you can use texlive pretty much in the same way as under Linux and update it with tlmgr. This is what I do. Either way, you will have to install biber by yourself. > Thanks a lot again for your work > > Luciano Footnotes: [1] e.g. https://openports.pl/path/print/texlive/texmf,-full
