  • This package will be updated once a year in general, following the TeX Live release in April.
  • You are recommended to use pandoc-bin instead of pandoc.
  • You can select a different mirror(e.g. fastest mirror in your country, see CTAN Sites) by changing the line (be careful of the ending systems/texlive/tlnet/)
_mirror='rsync.dante.ctan.org/CTAN/systems/texlive/tlnet/'

Users in mainland China are recommended to use bfsu mirror, set

_mirror='mirrors.bfsu.edu.cn/CTAN/systems/texlive/tlnet/'
  • _syncdir works as a local CTAN/telnet mirror (about 4.5GiB). You can change it to a different place if your BUILDDIR is on tmpfs, which may not have enough space
_syncdir="CTAN/tlnet"
  • Just ignore the adding to path messages (MANPATH INFOPATH PATH), they have been linked to the correct path already.
  • checksum is skipped as the shasum of install-tl-unx.tar.gz is varying. There is a directory called install-tl-YYYYMMDD (YYYYMMDD is the pkgver) and its contents are changing in every release.
  • rsync is added to makedepends for faster installation.
  • I plan to change the pkgver to be like 2021_20220220 in future, where the first 2021 means this is TeX Live 2021, and 20220220 is from install-tl-unx.tar.gz's contents. Current pkgver is not obvious enough. Especially when TeX Live 2022 has not been released yet, but we have pkgver=20220220!

@specter119 I'm sure if it's a good idea. I usually add these paths to user specific setting.

specter119 commented on 2019-11-02 05:23 (UTC)

how about add a /etc/profile.d/texlive-full.sh like

_year=2019
[ -d /opt/texlive/${_year}/bin/x86_64-linux ] && export PATH=$PATH:/opt/texlive/${_year}/bin/x86_64-linux
[ -d /opt/texlive/${_year}/texmf-dist/doc/man ] && export MANPATH=:$MANPATH:/opt/texlive/${_year}/texmf-dist/doc/man
[ -d /opt/texlive/${_year}/texmf-dist/doc/info ] && export INFOPATH=:$MANPATH:/opt/texlive/${_year}/texmf-dist/doc/info

Hotfixed by modifying PKGBUILD pkgver=$(date "+%Y%m%d") to pkgver="20191008"

@hottea yay is showing the correct date (Making package: texlive-full 20190813-1 (Tue 13 Aug 2019 01:00:20 BST)), the No such file message makes me think that something is missing on my hand.

hottea commented on 2019-08-12 01:31 (UTC)

@Berkmann I set pkgver by pkgver=$(date "+%Y%m%d"). The installer tarball install-tl-unx.tar.gz is updated every day, but not sure which timezone it uses. So there might a chance that the date of your system according to the timezone is not the same as the tarball. In that case, you could manual update the pkgver.

Is it me or is there any missing files causing the error below (using yay by the way)?
