2003/04/30 TeX Family on MacOS X Release 10.2

I have learned from Taku Yamanaka of Osaka University that there is an application called LaTeX Equation Editor that processes LaTeX commands and produces a PDF image of your desired equation which can be drag&dropped into your Keynote presentation. This motivated me to upgrade the previous TeX family. Just like the old one the new TeX family also works with both X11 and TeXShop. The family consists of

which can be "rpm -ivh"ed altogether at one time. The corresponding SRPMS are

which are based on those of Vine Linux.

If you want to rebuild them for yourself, you need to install


As for the RPMs I have built for MacOS X Release 10.2.X, the following directories might be useful:

SPECS
SOURCES
SRPMS
RPMS

where you can find spec files, my private patches, source RPMs, and binary RPMs, respectively. Note that the RPMS directory contains two subdirectories, "ppc" for architecture-dependent binariy packages, while "noarch" for those architecture-independent. For those packages without real source RPMs or those provided only as tar balls, you can find the corresponding original source packages and my private patches in src. The binary tar balls are in tgz.

These packages have been tested on my machines (G3 Series PowerBook, aka Wallstreet and Ti PowerBook G4) but might not work on your platform. Install them thus at your own risk.

Notice also that new packages are under ~fujiik/macosx/10.2.X/, while the old ones built on Release 10.1.X, 10.0.X, and Public Beta are under ~fujiik/macosx/10.1.X/, ~fujiik/macosx/10.0.X/, and ~fujiik/macosx/, respectively, and will not be supported.
