TeX Live 2010 or 2011 in 11.10?

  • 772

Will Ubuntu 11.10 ship with TeX Live 2010 or 2011? It seems Debian will package TeX Live 2011 and TeX Live 2011 has now been released.

    Unfortunately, it appears that Ubuntu 11.10 will still have TeX Live 2009, rather than either 2010 or 2011. As Ingo Gerth says, you can subscribe to bug 712521 and use the green "This bug affects..." link near the top of that bug page, to indicate that you are affected by this.

  2. It is now more than a year since Ubuntu 11.10 was released. The upgrade from TeX Live 2009 came first with Ubuntu 12.10 which includes TeX Live 2012.

    Still I have found that it easier to keep TeX Live up to date by installing it directly from upstream.
