So it's a big pain to update it all the time when tracking factory. It'd be really nice to split it so that we don't have to download something that big if we don't want the 100% complete tex experience. For example, it turns out it contains lots of fonts which are probably not needed by default. Debian splits them in a texlive-fonts-extra subpackage: http://packages.debian.org/sid/texlive-fonts-extra This could be a good first step. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
