Hi all! I'm working on TeXLive2009 and when anybody follows the changes, can see, that I'm splitting the texlive packages to a noarch and an arch-depend part (texlive-texmf.spec and texlive.spec). The packages names don't change (not will be e.g. texlive-texmf-latex-math or similar, only texlive-latex-math). In texlive.spec and texlive-texmf.spec there are many tetex-* provides (and obsoletes) because of compatibility with another, older packages (which (build)requires tetex-*). I want remove these provides in texlive.spec and texlive-texmf.spec, because these provides are a little difficult and imho unnecessary and redundant (yesterday I searched a provides-obsoletes-conlict about a half hour). The texlive packages are in repos about a half year (as I remember) and as I know, they work well. There are some difficulty with upgrade from tetex to texlive but as I know, can solve these problems with manual upgrade. And yes, texlive-packages need some more requires (mostly in latex-* packages, but I don't use e.g. chemical packages so I can't test them), so not perfect.
So, what I want? >From the "developers": I want that the package "maintainers" check his/her packages and their (build)requires and if necessary, update the depends from tetex to texlive and increment the release (and test the package, of course ;)) >From the "users" (and "developers" too ;)): if you use any TeX-system and you use tetex now, please upgrade to texlive. Thanks! Zsolt _______________________________________________ pld-users-en mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-users-en
