<title>Introduction to TeX Live and its installer</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <application>TeX Live</application> package is a comprehensive
|
|
TeX document production system. It includes TeX, LaTeX2e, ConTeXt,
|
|
Metafont, MetaPost, BibTeX and many other programs; an extensive collection
|
|
of macros, fonts and documentation; and support for typesetting in many
|
|
different scripts from around the world.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>It is necessary to use a binary installer for the first install.
|
|
This will provide the programs, the scripts, and a lot of supporting files
|
|
and documentation. After that, you can rebuild most of the programs from source
|
|
by following the instructions for <xref linkend="texlive"/>. The installer
|
|
is updated frequently, so its md5sum will change if it is newer than what
|
|
is shown below. Newer versions of the installer are expected to work with
|
|
these instructions, for so long as they install to a
|
|
<filename class="directory">&texlive-year;/</filename> directory.</para>

<title>Binary Installation of TeX Live</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <application>TeX Live</application> set of programs with its
|
|
supporting documents, fonts, and utilities is very large. The upstream
|
|
maintainers recommend placing all files in a single directory structure.
|
|
BLFS recommends <filename class='directory'>/opt/texlive</filename>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>First, unpack the installer and change into the installer's
|
|
directory, <filename class='directory'>install-tl-<CCYYMMDD></filename>.
|
|
This directory name changes when the installer is updated, so replace
|
|
<CCYYMMDD> by the correct directory name.</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>tar -xf install-tl-unx.tar.gz &&
|
|
cd install-tl-<CCYYMMDD> </userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<note><para>The distribution binaries installed below use static linking
|
|
for general linux system libraries. Additional libraries or interpreters
|
|
as specified in the dependencies section do not need to be present during
|
|
the install, but the programs that need them will not run until their
|
|
specific dependencies have been installed.</para></note>

<para>Now, as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem>

|

|
|
<para>This command is interactive and allows selection or modification of
|
|
platform, packages, directories, and other options. The full installation
|
|
scheme will require about 3.8 gigabytes of disk space. The time to complete
|
|
the download will depend on your internet connection speed and the
|
|
number of packages selected.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>After the package download is complete, the next step is to make sure
|
|
that the system can properly find the files. If you set up your login
|
|
scripts as recommended in <xref linkend='postlfs-config-profile'/>, update
|
|
the needed paths by appending to the
|
|
<filename>extrapaths.sh</filename> script. The programs are always
|
|
installed in an <ARCH>-linux subdirectory.
|
|
<emphasis>Always</emphasis> replace <ARCH> by x86_64, for 64bit,
|
|
or by i386, for 32bit, respectively, depending on the architecture that
|
|
you are using in your actual installation location.</para>
