LaTeX installation
Hi,
I finally decided to try lerning doing typesetting with LaTeX.
I had already installed tetex-packages when I was installing linux, but
when I tried to use LaTeX it comlained about missing files.
I reinstalled tetex-packages using dselect, but even during installation
some files were missing.
The packages I installed (or I tried to install:-) were tetex-base0.4pl6-5,
tetex-bin0.4ps-6-8, and tetex-extras0.4ps6-4.
>From the installation error-file (from dpkg) obviosly some files are
missing, like texmf.cnf, language.dat...
I tried searching for those files but they are not on my hard drive.
Perhaps all those files get installed with some other package, but dselect
didn't show any dependencies.
Anybody knows what am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any help in advance
Luka
