#27326: texlive-xetex (@17780_0) missing a dependency ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: mjpost@… | Owner: dports@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2 Keywords: | Port: texlive-xetex ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Changes (by macsforever2000@…): * owner: macports-tickets@… => dports@… * port: => texlive-xetex Old description:

The latest version of fontspec (included with texlive-xetex) fails to run if packages

texlive-latex3 texlive-latex-extra

are not installed, yet those are not listed as dependencies for texlive- xetex. Fontspec will first complain about a missing "expl3.sty" file (provided with texlive-latex3, and will also complain about a missing "binhex.tex" file (provided with texlive-latex-extra).

I think that these changes have to do with the transition to LaTeX 3.

You can repeat this problem by installing texlive-xetex (@17780_0) and typing

xelatex example.tex

(on the attached file).

#27326: texlive-xetex (@17780_0) missing a dependency ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: mjpost@… | Owner: dports@… Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2 Keywords: | Port: texlive-xetex ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Comment(by dports@…): Thanks for the report. It looks like this is an upstream bug in the dependencies as the texlive package database shows no dependencies for fontspec, yet clearly it has some. I really don't want to add a dependency on texlive-latex-extra, because that would mean adding it to the default texlive+medium install, and it's a 300MB package. Looks like in the latest CTAN snapshot the kastrup package (which provides binhex.sty) has moved from latex-extra to generic-recommended, so perhaps we can update to that. Not sure there's anything we can do about the expl3 dependency other than pulling in latex3 as a dependency... -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/27326#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
