Subject: [gentoo-user] Install a more recent version of LaTeX package
Date: Sat, 12 Oct 2013 10:14:09 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131012131408.GA20555@jrm> (raw)

Hello.

What is the best way of updating a given LaTeX package in gentoo to the
latest available version on CTAN?

The installed version of tcolorbox is 2.32, provided by
dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2013, and I need version 2.51, available
on CTAN.

There used to be a package called g-ctan that could be used in this
situation. But it has been masked.

Any clues?

Romildo
