TeX Live 2008/9 packaging and you
by Jindrich Novy 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

Hi all, sorry for long mail. I thought it's a good idea to catch up with you guys before I update to the new TeX Live in rawhide and discuss possible problems. To make really long story short, the new TeX Live comes with a huge set of subpackages (about 4000) so what I want to ask you if it will just slow down yum and general updating terribly or is it generally acceptable? (considering the metadata size growth?) For more details please read this (to-be) announcement: I finally manage to package the whole TeX Live 2008 distribution including binaries coming from the actual 2009 TeX Live development tree: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1382525 Not only that it uses the latest rpm features such as: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/NoarchSubpackages but it comes with improved packaging scheme generated from TeX Live upstream packaging metadata with emphasis on future maintainability in Fedora 12+. Let me compare the new and previous version: Old version texlive-2007 (currently in f9, f10, f11): * three main package trees: - texlive, arch dependent, 13 packages / 7 MiB - texlive-texmf, noarch, 9 packages / 274 MiB - texlive-texmf-errata, noarch, 9 packages / 0 MiB * monolythic design * one needs to install most of the texlive-texmf to run texlive smoothly (100MiB+) * most of the texlive features like fonts/styles missing as it was only packaged to find a replacement for tetex after its upstream abandoned the project New version texlive-2008 (to be in f12): * one single texlive package generating 3944 subpackages / 1065 MiB * spec file automagically generated from upstream metadata with http://people.redhat.com/jnovy/files/tl2008/tl2rpm.c * upstream collections/packages are separate source tarballs (one could update one small source tarball if a particular style needs update and doesn't need to repack the whole single tarball or patch it) * new texlive is maximally scalable depending on which features are needed: - basic installation needs only 12 MiB of packages to be downloaded! - essential features such as pdflatex is supported in this basic scheme * it is a full (not truncated or otherwise crippled) version of TeX Live texlive-2008 pros: * about 70 MiB saved space on installation media!! - especially appreciated by Fedora Live, note that it means 10% space saving on CD medium! So it could be filled with additional software * faster buildroot installation - many packages need texlive to build their documentation, most of them needs only the basic texlive scheme * maintenance in sync with upstream by design - spec file is generated from upstream metadata by my utility above - upstream ships tarballs of styles/fonts, etc. separately texlive-2008 cons: * 3944 subpackages, texlive.spec is 2.7 MiB in size - this is huge number. I need to catch up with releng guys whether the repo metadata growth isn't too big and how to workaround it Hope it's not a showstopper ;) It looks like a nice new feature for f12 and a good opportunity to do rpm/yum/koji torture tests :) Cheers, Jindrich -- Jindrich Novy <jnovy(a)redhat.com> http://people.redhat.com/jnovy/
