LaTeX setup for Fedora, on machines not maintained by the department
If you are installing LaTeX on a Fedora and want to use department-specific styles and fonts, follow these steps:
- Install the standard tex packages from your distribution. You may of course choose to install only a selection, but a full installation is about 4.5GB, and a reasonable working selection will be close to 3 GB, so you might just as well go for the full installation, i.e.
sudo dnf install texlive-scheme-full
- The next step is to download and install the department packages.
sudo curl -o /usr/local/bin/update-texmf-local http://dist.control.lth.se/public/Texlive/texmf-local/scripts/update-texmf-local sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/update-texmf-local sudo /usr/local/bin/update-texmf-local
Done. You may do a quick test by copying the directory /usr/share/texmf-local/template/LTHreport (use cp -a) to a test area and then run pdflatex template. This should confirm that everything works as intended.
