• This package will be updated once a year in general, following the TeX Live release in April.
• You are recommended to use pandoc-bin instead of pandoc.
• You can select a different mirror(e.g. fastest mirror in your country, see CTAN Sites) by changing the line (be careful of the ending systems/texlive/tlnet/)

_mirror='rsync.dante.ctan.org/CTAN/systems/texlive/tlnet/'

Users in mainland China are recommended to use bfsu mirror, set

_mirror='mirrors.bfsu.edu.cn/CTAN/systems/texlive/tlnet/'

• _syncdir works as a local CTAN/telnet mirror (about 4.5GiB). You can change it to a different place if your BUILDDIR is on tmpfs, which may not have enough space

_syncdir="CTAN/tlnet"

• Just ignore the adding to path messages (MANPATH INFOPATH PATH), they have been linked to the correct path already.
• checksum is skipped as the shasum of install-tl-unx.tar.gz is varying. There is a directory called install-tl-YYYYMMDD (YYYYMMDD is the pkgver) and its contents are changing in every release.
• rsync is added to makedepends for faster installation.
• I plan to change the pkgver to be like 2021_20220220 in future, where the first 2021 means this is TeX Live 2021, and 20220220 is from install-tl-unx.tar.gz's contents. Current pkgver is not obvious enough. Especially when TeX Live 2022 has not been released yet, but we have pkgver=20220220!
• Comments are welcome

@wuddy please do not ask about TEX issues here. You are suggested to ask your questions at other TEX-specific communities such as https://tex.stackexchange.com/.

For your question, note that Font bbm10 at 600 not found, be aware of 600.

Hello! Everyone

I met an error when I compile a tex file, as follows:

!pdfTeX error: /usr/bin/pdflatex (file bbm10): Font bbm10 at 600 not found
 ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

It seems that there is no bbm10 package, but I checked that there is in .../texmf-dist/fonts/source/public/bbm/

Any suggestion is helpful. Thanks

@sacrelicious, it's because of the license file. The pkgver was 2022.20220405 in PKGBUILD, but it then is updated by pkgver() to 2022.20220406, so install can find the correct file. I just removed pkgver in LICENSE file. Please try again. Thanks for your feedback.

@sukanka got this error instead

  -> Install license file
install: cannot stat '/home/username/Downloads/AUR/texlive-full/src/LICENSE.2022.20220406': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().

@sacrelicious, thanks for you comment. It should be fixed now.

My current version is 20220405-1, I tried updating and got the error message as below

==> Starting pkgver()...
cat: /home/username/.cache/yay/texlive-full/src/install-tl-/release-texlive.txt: No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in pkgver().

-> error making: texlive-full

@haawda thanks! I merged your changes, and add other provides and conflicts. Next step is to move all these provides and conflicts to depends, and only install the needed files.

texlive 2022 is out.

I also needed texlive-htmlxml (do not understand why, but dblatex still wants it) and t1utils in the provides/conflicts array.
