Re: help with error message
No drama whatsoever for 10 years or so when downloading from TUG and upgrading (annually). But then I have a shell script to do this for me. I have now installed BasicTeX on one of my boxes as a homebrew cask and will see what happens when the annual upgrade comes round. Never mind that I don't know what upstream tex is nor package installed tex. el On 2021-01-05 18:56 , Steve Litt wrote: > On Mon, 4 Jan 2021 13:43:26 +0200 > Dr Eberhard W Lisse wrote: > >> Heba, >> >> download BasicTeX from the MacTex site.

In the past, I've had a lot of problems operating with both upstream tex, and package installed tex. So I recommend removing the package installed tex, and installing the upstream. See https://tug.org/texlive/acquire-netinstall.html for how to install from upstream.

Re: help with error message
Heba, download BasicTeX from the MacTex site. And then use tlmgr from the command line to install missing packages individually. Before an update it is trivial to save the list of installed packages so that one can re-install them afterwards. I bought me a 32Gig 4TB MacBoc 13" Pro (BtO) the other day and a 16Gig 2TB 12" Air for travel. If you can wait a year of two I would wait a year or two :-)-O and then get the biggest M1 13 inch you can then afford (BtO). greetings, el On 2021-01-04 03:34 , heba said wrote: > Thanks download 4 G then installation around 7 so it is very hard to > download.

Thanks download 4 G then installation around 7 so it is very hard to download. Any alternative? If I need to buy a new Mac/ laptop for programming, what will be the best ?
