This directory contains infrastructure for TeX Live, including
management programs and Perl modules.

texlive.tlpdb	the database, updated automatically by karl@tug cron.
texlive.pkgver	just package names and version numbers, also updated by cron,
		so the network-capable installer can know what needs updating.

	infrastructure and installer use.

bin/	maintenance scripts for TeX Live; nothing here should be 
	needed by the installer or the user.

doc/	documentation of the infrastructure.

etc/	archives, e.g., scripts used when switching to the new regime.

installer/   the cross-platform Perl installer.

lib/	TL library in other languages, none complete.

man/	man pages (generated by pod2man).

tlperl/	small Perl for TeX Live scripts, not installed for general use.
