I've been happily using latex, pdflatex and context for five years now.
Now, because a port complains for the absence of a psfonts.sty file
which seems to be presente in the latex port I tried to install this
port BUT
I can't make head or tail of the fact that if I try to install
the port /usr/ports/print/latex while teTeX-base & teTeX-texmf are
installed they conflict
stat# make install
===> Installing for
latex2e-2003.12_1
===> latex2e-2003.12_1 conflicts with installed
package(s):
teTeX-base-3.0_10
teTeX-texmf-3.0_5
They
install files into the same place.
Please remove them first with
pkg_delete(1).
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/print/latex.
Why
is that? I thought that latex was part of/ a subset of the wider teTeX
port, therefore there's no reason why they should conflict. Isn't that
true OR or is latex considered a different port/code with different
libs and executable?
Please clarify this point.
