This resolves Bug 178727 - TeX should be updated. ================================================= All maintainers of packages whic hare affected by this switch are listed in Bcc. Please read below to find you packages sorted by maintainer and package. TeXLive was submitted to STABLE/openSuSE. There are two spec files generated from a spec.in which a) provides the noarch files and b) provides the architecture dependent program files. This way was choosen by me due to fact that rpm does not support multi-architecture spec and rpm files. The packages have some sub packages depending on the usage, for noarch this is: * texlive (former tetex te_eplai te_ams) -> texlive-cjk -> texlive-context (former te_cont) -> texlive-devel (former te_kpath te_web) -> texlive-dvilj (former te_dvilj) -> texlive-latex (former te_latex) -> texlive-metapost (former te_mpost) -> texlive-nfs (former te_nfs) -> texlive-omega (former te_omega) -> texlive-xetex and for the architecture dependent packages this is: * texlive-bin -> texlive-bin-cjk -> texlive-bin-devel -> texlive-bin-dvilj -> texlive-bin-latex -> texlive-bin-metapost -> texlive-bin-omega -> texlive-bin-xetex Please note that all *bin package wil be PreRequired by their noarch package. This ensures that the binaries will be linked back to /usr/bin/ and that afterward one can install other architectures with `rpm -i'. Do never use `rpm -Uhv' for this to avoid overwriting the original architecture binaries. Deinstalling is simply done with `rpm -e' specifying not only name and version but also the the architecture type. On of the most interesting packages is texlive-xetex, which provides an UTF-8 _and_ fontconfig capability, which really extends TeX and LaTeX to XeTeX and XeLaTeX into the common world of UTF-8 and modern fonts, for a description see http://scripts.sil.org/XeTeX. The XeTeX engine can also be used for ConTeXt formats and also provides pdf/dvi output.
