#19697: double install of texmf -------------------------------------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: jmcdon10@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: texlive Port: texlive_texmf-full texlive_texmf-minimal | -------------------------------------------------------+-------------------- Changes (by blb@…): * keywords: => texlive * status: new => closed * resolution: => invalid * port: => texlive_texmf-full texlive_texmf-minimal Old description:

I am installing octave and just got this:

---> Cleaning texlive_texmf-full ---> Fetching texlive_texmf-minimal

I feel like this should never ever happen. It's bad enough that I already have mactex, so now I have three distributions! I'm not sure what dependencies caused this, but it seems like there should be a way to make sure that texmf-full is treated as a superset of texmf-minimal.

It is split out this way as that's how the distfiles are split out in the OpenBSD ports version which we are currently using. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/19697#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
