#39810: luatex: request for port removal ----------------------+----------------------- Reporter: mojca@… | Owner: patrick@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: luatex | ----------------------+----------------------- Comment (by larryv@…): Replying to [comment:3 mojca@…]:
Yes, they do, they both provide {{{${prefix}/bin/luatex}}}, but that's not a real problem.
If they install the same files, they should explicitly conflict with each other.
The idea was being able to install just a tiny binary instead of the whole gigantic package. But it makes no sense to keep providing an ancient binary along with the latest one bundled in TeX Live. If anyone will need just luatex again some time in future, he/she can create a package again.
Or they could install texlive-luatex, which isn’t as minimal but is still smaller than texlive. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39810#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
