Because texlive from distro are not updated like texlive from CTAN using tlmgr. Because binaries are not statically linked and if a bug happens in a library when you update fedora, you cannot work with your TeX install..... Something is inconsistent in these dependencies: if you succeed to install texmaker from a distro without texlive installed from the same distro, texmaker is able to find your texlive install (ie. /usr/local/ texlive/2015/bin/x86_64-linux/ instead of /usr/bin), so texmaker does not depend of the texlive install. -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Laboratoire CNRS MAP5, UMR 8145 Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)1 8394 5849 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
