latex
Hello
What is the proper way of installing latex? I installed it via print/latex port, but now it comlies about latex pacakges in my latex source file when I'm running it! It seems that new istallation have deleted all latex packages. I'm depressed! Last edited by Gates; 17th December 2008 at 12:54 AM. |

Personally, I would suggest installing TexLive manually from DVD ISO -> it is trivial.
FreeBSD is based on teTeX I believe, and for better or worse ports requiring a tex or latex dist will usually suck it in (IDEs); so path manipulation may be necessary if you use TexLive. As to any output you get off FreeBSDs setup, no one here is physic lol

I have used LaTeX for my master's thesis [ http://toya.net.pl/~vermaden/tmp/thesis.pdf ] and only thing that I had to do was pkg_add -r tetex (same package on OpenSolaris) and everything worked out of the box.

Propably you need to pkg_add -r teTeX then.
