It is very desirable to fix texlive:
1. The latest upstream version is modularized, not monolithic,
monolithic packaging prevents us from upgraring
2. Lumping all kinds of different resources in a single package
resulted in licensing hell (ask spot)
3. All the stuff inside texlive is not packaged following the
guidelines that would have applied if it were packaged separately, and
as a result stuff like fonts which could be used in a print server or
some other server app is not made available to non-tex users.
