- I do have TeX and dvi2ps, others compiled, but it was a frustrating
- experience. The README's "sort of" point at each other, you end up making
- directories that the Makefiles don't, and so on.
-
- So, next chance, I'm going to rip it up and install everything
- from scratch... I should note that compiling X11R3, R4, and R5 was
- quite a bit easier, and I've handled quite a number of other non-trivial
- installations.
-
- Has anyone made a file of notes of problems they encountered when
- installing TeX? May I have you email it to me?
-
- There's some sort of secret "I made it through TeX installation"
- society, right? :-)
