concern here, it's the individual components. I'm su

@all who have tried to install kerTeX and have failed, what is needed?
1) make sure that "Development Tools" is installed, if it is not then, as root
user
# yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
2) install flex-static, flex and bison are installed but libl.a, or libfl.a are

are available in Fedora. It does not have pdflatex, pdftex, dvipdfm, xdvi
