Update of Koma-Script package for Debian-TeTex from www.dante.de
The Koma-Script-package of current Debian-Linux has date 31.01.2003.
I asked at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and got an reply by Hilmar Preusse
that there will be no update in next time. He suggested to install a local copy from
www.dante.de.
Here is a short installation report. Maybe this is helpful for other people.
I have tried to write down all steps carefully, but there is no warranty from me.
I am not a very experienced Debian- and LaTex-user.
Best regards
Stefan Salewski
Here is my installation report:
--
cd
mkdir tmp
cd tmp
ftp ftp.dante.de
cd pub/tex/macros/latex/contrib
get koma-script.tar.gz
exit
tar -xvzf koma-script.tar.gz
In tetex configuration file /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf
there is an entry
% A place for local additions to a "standard" texmf tree. For example:
TEXMFLOCAL = /usr/local/share/texmf
so we can store new koma-script there.
cd /usr/local/share/
su
mkdir texmf # on my system there was no texmf
exit
cd
cd tmp/koma-script
less INSTALL(D).TXT
cp Makefile.unx Makefile
replace in Makefile line
INSTALLTEXMF=`kpsewhich --expand-var '$$TEXMFLOCAL'`
with
INSTALLTEXMF=/usr/local/share/texmf
su
make
make install
make install will ask about overwriting files.
This is a bit strange.
Answer two times "y" (yes)
I think this will not really overwrite files, but insert files in
new tree /usr/local/share/texmf.
exit
Test if new koma-script is used, and old one is ignored:
cd
mkdir test
cd test
Create testfile named Test.tex which looks like this:
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\begin{document}
dummy
\end{document}
latex Test
less Test.log
You should find a remark that the new package of koma-script is used.
