# eitl.sh Easy Install of TeXLive
(C) Rolf [email protected],[email protected]
This script allows the easy install of a current TeXLive
version over the net. It is tested with the current
Linux versions of OpenSUSE and Ubuntu. The script does
- looking for a fast server
- downloading the install script
- deleting an existing TeXLive version from
Ubuntu (deb) or openSUSE (rpm)
- extracting and running the install script
- installing a complete up-to-date TeXLive from tug.org
- installing the non free fonts from tug.org which are
not part of TeXLive, like arial, Luxi mono, aso
- installing a dummy package for an existing deb (Ubuntu)
or rpm (openSuSE) TeXLive
- installing the GUIs TeXmaker and TeXworks
- creating files zzz-texlive.sh for /etc/profile.d/
without specifing a directory, TeXLive will be installed
in the home directory ~/texlive. For another one run
the script with e.g.
./eitl.sh /usr/local/texlive
If something goes wrong, then run eitl.sh with the restore option
./eitl.sh restore
it restores the .bashrc and deletes the files
/etc/profile.d/zzz-texlive.* if present
It is possible to create files zzz-texlive.(c)sh
in /etc/profile.d/ for systemwide definitions
instead of the entries in the local .bashrc
If you prefer a system wide setting then set
CREATE_PROFILE_FILES=1
the default is 0.
For some actions the script needs to be root. In such
cases it asks for the root password.
Report bugs to the authors.
