Some while ago I posted a problem on this list concerning a failure of
R CMD check on one of my packages that resulted from LaTeX being
unable to find the "inconsolata" font. This was under the Ubuntu OS.
This was solved, thanks to advice I got from this list, basically by
doing
sudo apt-get install texlive-fonts-extra
I am now (for reasons which I won't go into) running Fedora 17, on a
different computer. Now LaTeX cannot find the necessary inconsolata.sty
file.
I googled around a bit, and an item I found led me to check whether I
actually had texlive installed on my (new) system. I hadn't!!! So I did
sudo yum install texlive
and that seemed to work. But then the item I'd found indicated that I
should do
sudo yum install texlive-inconsolata, texlive-inconsolata-font
But I got:
No package texlive-inconsolata, available.
No package texlive-inconsolata-font available.
I also tried
sudo yum install texlive-fonts-extra
with a similar result.
Can anyone give me a simple recipe as to how to get the inconsolata font
and the associated inconsolata.sty?
Install texlive 2012. The texlive version in Fedora (<= 17, and 17 is
the current release with 18 having been delayed yet again) is many years
out of date (2007: this is 2013!), and you will save yourself a lot of
other problems.
Thanks.
cheers,
Rolf Turner
