Description of problem: texmaker depending on tetex How reproducible: yum install texmaker Installing: texmaker i386 1:1.5-1.fc6 extras 1.0 M Installing for dependencies: nas i386 1.8a-2.fc6 extras 645 k qt4 i386 4.2.3-3.fc6.1 extras 1.1 M qt4-x11 i386 4.2.3-3.fc6.1 extras 5.4 M tetex i386 3.0-32.fc6 core 13 M tetex-dvipost i386 1.1-6.fc6 extras 31 k tetex-dvips i386 3.0-32.fc6 core 585 k tetex-fonts i386 3.0-32.fc6 core 29 M tetex-latex i386 3.0-32.fc6 core 5.4 M Expected results: Because i am using tex-live and because texmaker is just edito, i think he dont need to depend on obsolete tetex.
Is tex-live already in Fedora repositories? if so, then it (tex-live package) should properly obsolete tetex. I'm going to remove it though and just require tetex-latex and(*-fonts and *-dvipost)
No, tex-live is not in FC6. But i think that i can choose latex distibution myself, not the editor (just editor). Isn't than right?
Yes you're right. I've just checked again, and the dependency is on tetex-latex, which makes sense (there's no hard dependency on tetex). Once tex-live enters enters Fedora, the issue will resolve itself. Thanks.
