1. Package updates
==================
Please see http://www.tug.org/texlive/pkgupdate.html
1a. packages already in tpm-ctan-check
--------------------------------------
texmf-dist/tpm/active-conf.tpm
the subdirs on CTAN 2006-version and example contain the same files!
the check compares different files
ctan2tds calls MAKEflatten which is bad
I guess I didn't notice the files were the same. Can you straighten out
ctan2tds.pl so it does something reasonable? I guess active-conf has to
have its own routine :(. Or ask the author to make the filenames
unique.
texmf-dist/tpm/beebe.tpm
MAKEbeebe needs work, this is true!
texmf-dist/tpm/hyperref.tpm
hyperref-tds.zip seems to be out-of-date, after updating the
check still spits out changed .html file
texmf-doc/tpm/lshort-turkish.tpm
turkish is not defined in the @languages array in Tpm.pm, so files in
the buildPatternsDocumentation (Tpm.pm) function, which checks
for /doc/$language/.... and /source/$language/....
1b. How to add new packages to tpm-ctan-check?
----------------------------------------------
It's not even necessary to do that unless ctan2tds has to do something
special. For many packages, the defaults work.
So what I do is nearly the same as updating:
0) Add /pat/to/texlive/svn/repository/Build/tools to your path
1) Choose a package, ie a tpm, best for now one in texmf-dist/tpm/ which
is NOT already in tpm-ctan-check. You can get a list of the
not treated packages by calling
tpm-ctan-check --list-not-treated-tpm
2) check licensing, sources [doc especially], etc.
if you have the CTAN archive available you can call
CTAN=/pat/to/CTAN tlpkginfo --ctan-dir <package>
to get the location of the package.
(optional, but would be great)
If you want/can PLEASE update the TeX Catalogue entry or send
us tex-live@tug.org, debian-tex@lists.debian.org
the relevant information:
- version of package checked
- date checked
- type of license
- where the license statement can be found (filename, eg
README)
3) run ctan2tl and inspect the output, please see details on the above
website for a short explanation how to interpret the output
3a) if good, then good:
- add the package name to ctan-tpm-check (yeah, one more)
- call ctan2tl --place <package>
- submit
3b) if bad, then bad:
Hack ctan2tds as necessary, which can be everything:
maybe just MAKEflatten, maybe something else.
Or just inform us here and we will take a look.
4) continue with another package.
If you want to add a NEW package without a tpm, do more or less the same
as above, only in stel 3a) add it also to one of the collections, or ask
us where to add it.
Adaption for ctan2tds:
----------------------
authorindex
the perl file "authorindex" must be moved to source/latex/authorindex
1c. Hyphenation patterns
------------------------
There are hyphenation files to sort out if you care to work on that
incredibly frustrating task.
2. sources updates
==================
There are some patches to apply to the sources.
There are the program sources to update in general (e.g., dvipng).
3. Infrastructure
=================
There is running tlrebuild -n and dealing with all the reports of files
not in the tpm's, etc. That's probably most in line with what you've
been doing so far.
I (Norbert) am currently checking on this.
