Vanilla TeX Live 2009 on Ubuntu
- by reprogrammer
I installed TeX Live 2009 by following the instructions at http://www.tug.org/texlive/quickinstall. Then, to make my local TeX Live installation work with the Ubuntu package management system, I followed the instructions on http://www.tug.org/texlive/debian.html. That is, I performed the following steps.
$ sudo aptitude install equivs
$ mkdir /tmp/tl-equivs && cd /tmp/tl-equivs
$ equivs-control texlive-local
# I replaced the contents of texlive-local by http://www.tug.org/texlive/debian-control-ex.txt
$ equivs-build texlive-local
$ sudo dpkg -i texlive-local_2009-1~1_all.deb
However, when I go about installing kile through the Ubuntu package management system, it requires me to install a lot of dependencies that are already provided by my texlive-local package. Does any one have a suggestion to fix this problem?
