Re: RFS: thailatex (updated package)



Hi Paul, hi Theppitak,

I have followed the thread (as Debian TeX maintainer) but I was too late
in fetching the package, and now it cannot be found on the mentors
server anymore, and it is not already in the pool of ftp.debian.org. So
no other comments from my side ...

That will not work since we would need thailatex installed in any case.
Best would be if the ldf file is submitted to the babel maintainers so
that it will be included into the next babel release (thus in TeX Live
upstream, thus in Debian).

In reality a better mechanism would be nice, but who is up to writing
something replacing babel of fixing babel to load according to a config
file.

Best wishes

Norbert

LE TOUQUET (n.)
A mere nothing, an unconsidered trifle, a negligible amount. Un
touquet is often defined as the difference between the cost of a
bottle of gin bought in an off-licence and one bought in a duty-free
shop.
