Sometime when I run out of more pressing things to fix, I'm going to try texlive-texliveonfly to see if it can find and install missing LaTeX packages. Seriously, texlive is huge - if you install *everything* IIRC you have something like 4 GB just for texlive! So there's every reason to want to install a minimal texlive and install packages on an as-needed basis. And I'm curious why there are texlive packages in Fedora that aren't in EPEL - I assume it's a human or machine resource constraint. -- OSJourno: Robust Power Tools for Digital Journalists http://www.znmeb.mobi/stories/osjourno-robust-power-tools-for-digital-journalists Remember, if you're traveling to Bactria, Hump Day is Tuesday and Thursday. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
