Yes. It's a rather small download, you only really need the main package cjk-latex.rpm, all other cjk-latex-*.rpm packages are optional, rarely used fonts. Probably it is best to use the fonts from ttf-kochi-mincho.rpm and ttf-kochi-gothic.rpm which are already available on the German CDs/DVD.
It works as described. Only one thing was missing, namely the tfm files for these fonts (they seem not to be on the DVD). However, I found your explanation on http://lists.suse.com/archive/m17n/2001-Nov/0034.html and accordingly did # rpm -i ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/7.2-i386/cjk-latex-tfm-kochi-mincho-4.4.0_20010731-0.i386.rpm # rpm -i ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/7.2-i386/cjk-latex-tfm-kochi-gothic-4.4.0_20010731-0.i386.rpm For the record, the error I encountered was something along these lines: ] kpathsea: Running mktextfm kochimin-uni4e ] mktextfm: Running mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input kochimin-uni4e ] This is METAFONT, Version 2.7182 (Web2C 7.3.7) ] ] kpathsea: Running mktexmf kochimin-uni4e ] !
