To upgrade an existing Slackware system to use the new version of TeX, follow these simple instructions: 1. Remove the old TeX distribution: cd /var/log/packages removepkg nt?-* 2. Remove the old /usr/lib/texmf directory tree: cd /usr/lib rm -r texmf 3. Clean out any old temporary fonts: cd /var/texfonts rm -r * 4. Install the new teTeX distribution. Either install all the packages with installpkg: installpkg t?/*.tgz Or, use setup to reinstall the new T series. 5. Log out, and then back in. This will add /usr/lib/teTeX/bin to your $PATH. Then, you can run texconfig to set your local preferences. ---------------------------- Thu Oct 3 14:39:08 CDT 1996 slakware/d11/ncurses.tgz: Added header files missing from the official Linux ncurses binary distribution: form.h, menu.h, panel.h. ---------------------------- Wed Oct 2 16:49:34 CDT 1996 slakware/a8/util.tgz: Mount updated to 2.5m.
