I was unable to makepkg texlive-localmanager-git. I wanted a tool to manage packages from CTAN. The package I wanted is <specfont>. It is included in Texlive 2012, but doesn't work. When \usepackage{specfront}, Texmaker returns an error. Btw, it is not a great deal, but other users have trouble too with the AUR Texlive Local Manager. Is is same as what is called <tlmgr>?
