Do you know *when exactly* it will be released? TeX Live and FreeBSD share the same principle: a release will be out when it is ready. No deadlines: http://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2010-July/026779.html TL2010 pretest is currently at the stage of final testings. > I am also hoping that if use either the pretest one, or the official > release, that *it*(The install procedure) also setup the paths, > otherwise one has to do this manually :( > [...] Ok, so you would like an installation procedure without need to change PATH and other env vars and without installing binaries manually? The following comes to mind (unfortunately, you must deinstall all traces of teTeX from FreeBSD ports first, but I think you can easily maintain a teTeX-free installation): (1) download TL2010 pretest tree: rsync -a --delete --exclude=3D"mactex*" rsync://ftp.cstug.cz/pub/tex/lo= cal/tlpretest . (don't forget the final dot) (2) run ./install-tl -gui (you'll need x11-toolkits/p5-Tk for GUI) (3) find the last option, "Create symlinks in system directories" (which is "no" by default) and click "Change"; in the small window, check "create symlinks in standard directories". (4) Click "Install TeX Live". That's all. You'll have FreeBSD binaries; no need to change PATH since all TL binaries, manpages, etc. will be linked from /usr/local/bin/ etc. Hope this helps, - --=20 Nikola Le=C4=8Di=C4=87 =3D =D0=9D=D0=B8=D0=BA=D0=BE=D0=BB=D0=B0 =D0=9B=D0= =B5=D1=87=D0=B8=D1=9B fingerprint : FEF3 66AF C90E EDC3 D878 7CDC 956D F4AB A377 1C9B ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (FreeBSD) iJwEAQEDAAYFAkxXGiIACgkQ/MM/0rYIoZjMAwQAgxBnnjY7FFSwBnClOf8Ktn1C KF2Jx4Q8osgXJ9Z7GyudXqGDC3y3LvmnYDTpGilm39kUuIuxNohidkD46iyz79QO n0LM6ewrDW4pd76JikKH5v1cDmUq/6dnOxaGe/H/95Br79vsQQbXErkHO9s+mHAt YY0nCAaS2tT/3s740WA=3D =3DJoRc -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
