Update tex-live package?

[H Xu]

Hello,

Tex-live package is still 2007. It's a little outdated, and the new 
version has a better support of CJK. Please update the package.

Thanks.

Folks are working on it, but there's a lot of legal checking still to
do. :(

You could join in and help out:

And there is a side repo with the new versions available:

Hope that helps.

Hello Kevin,

I see the problem. It's not easy to solve. Any way, I will find another way.

Thanks.

The release package for F14 seems to be missing:

Downloading Packages:
http://jnovy.fedorapeople.org/texlive/2010/packages.fc14/texlive-release-201...: 
[Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 :

Trying other mirror.

256] No more mirrors to try.

Looking at the list from a browser confirms this omission.
