I've had a couple (two) requests to see that now, so: http://www.tetexrpm.org/texjive.html There's still work that needs to be done (most notably, it does not seem to link against system freetype even when I ask it to). Also - I'm not sure why it is doing this, but it builds/installs lcdf-typetools when I specifically ask it not to - deleting the lcdf-typetools directory solves that though. But is a start. If someone wants to do for RPM what Debian has done - more power to them, but this is works for me, and is preferable for me, maybe for some others too. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
