No it is not usable right now, hence the mask :-) The biggest problem (aside from some minor problems with the ebuild) is figuring out how to provide a texmf tree. The texmf tree that ships with the current ebuild is several 100 MB, which I think is too much. I like some way to provide a light, medium and heavy texmf tree. The problem is not making an ebuild but making the tree it self. So if you feel like figuring out which tex packages should go into which of the three trees then I would appreciate it very much! (remember that there are also deps between the packages). Martin Ehmsen -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
