[opensuse-packaging] How long does it takes to review a submit request?
by jcsl 03 Jul '14

Hi. I submitted a package update request 16 days ago. https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/237600 It is the first that it takes too long to get an answer. Is this normal? This is not a complain, just curious. Greetings. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] TeX Live packages in the repo is out of date
by 胡小柯 03 Jul '14

Hi, I found that TeXlive 2014 has released on 14 June 2014, but we still have just TeX Live 2013 in the repo, http://software.opensuse.org/package/texlive . However, building TeX Live packages is complicated, I have no idea how to do it. I wanna build a dummy package, texlive-dummy, so that I can install TeX Live via DVD ISO from https://www.tug.org/texlive/ and don't get in trouble with dependency. Some packages, such as kile, texstudio, require texlive or tex files as their dependency. I did not get the texlive-dummy work well. I wonder it's there any way to install TeX Live 2014 via ISO, not from the repo, but don't result in dependency issue? How about we build TeX Live packages with tlmgr, TeX Live manager, which is not available in TeX Live 2013 packages in the repo? We just build TeX Live distribution for one time per year, and manager/update macro packages with tlmgr. Although, TeX Live distribution release every year, but people update packages to http://www.ctan.org/ everyday. We need tlmgr to stay up-to-date with CTAN.
