Hmm, I would prefer texlive-doc-zh-cn.  Reason is that the package
only contains Simplified Chinese documents (currently only one
document).  People from Taiwan, Hong Kong (sometimes) and a lot of
overseas Chinese use Traditional Chinese, and that is usually
described as zh_TW.

If you don't want to make a distinction between these two scripts
(e.g. you want to put both versions, should they exist, in one singe
Chinese doc package), then I would still go for "zh", which are the
two first letters of "China" in Chinese: "ZHong guo".

Heheh.


An additional problem: Chinese fonts are not embedded in "live.pdf".
Evince cannot find the font tags "F5" or "F2", because it can't find
Adobe-GB1 or Adobe-GB2.  I do have the CMap "Adobe-GB1" installed.

"gv" has no problems showing the PDF correctly.
