The TeX packaging is consistent with FHS and with upstream organization. We can do better at integrating, for the fonts for instance. But this doesn't render the TeX packaging bad or not acceptable. I can't see the 'known problems' of the current TeX packaging. If you refer to TeX fonts not being available for other packages, sure this is a shortcoming, but not a problem. (License issues are another matter, but mostly independent of the packaging issues, and upstream is quick at resolving those, quick here meaning for the next release). -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
