#19697 closed defect (invalid)

double install of texmf

Reported by: jmcdon10@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.7.0
Keywords: texlive Cc:
Port: texlive_texmf-full texlive_texmf-minimal

Description (last modified by blb@…)

I am installing octave and just got this:

--->  Cleaning texlive_texmf-full
--->  Fetching texlive_texmf-minimal

I feel like this should never ever happen. It's bad enough that I already have mactex, so now I have three distributions! I'm not sure what dependencies caused this, but it seems like there should be a way to make sure that texmf-full is treated as a superset of texmf-minimal.

That's actually normal and expected, texlive_texmf-full and texlive_texmf-minimal are different ports and is not a duplication; there is also texlive_base which installs other bits as well. It is split out this way as that's how the distfiles are split out in the OpenBSD ports version which we are currently using.

Right I realized that just now as i started digging into the depnedencies... thanks for responding!
