I try to pass to texlive from tetex. I successfully make the change in a amd64 machine but in a x86 one I have the following problem while emerge dev-texlive/texlive-latex-2007

Code:

>>> Emerging (1 of 6) dev-texlive/texlive-latex-2007 to /
 * Building format texmf/fmtutil/format.latex.cnf
fmtutil: format directory `/var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-latex-2007/work/texmf-var/web2c' does not exist.


The same error came when emerge dev-texlive/texlive-metapost-2007

Code:

 * Building format texmf/fmtutil/format.metapost.cnf
fmtutil: format directory `/var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-metapost-2007/work/texmf-var/web2c' does not exist.
 *
 * ERROR: dev-texlive/texlive-metapost-2007 failed.
 * Call stack:


And the best one is when (after skip the previous one) I try to emerge jadetex

Code:

>>> Emerging (1 of 4) app-text/jadetex-3.13-r2 to /
tex jadetex.ins
This is TeX, Version 3.141592 (Web2C 7.5.6)
(./jadetex.ins
! I can't find file `docstrip.tex'.
l.2 \input docstrip.tex

Please type another input file name:


and the emerge process ask my about this file... don't be supposed that ebuilds are non interactive method of install packages?

EDIT: The same for dev-texlive/texlive-htmlxml

Code:

 >>> Emerging (2 of 3) dev-texlive/texlive-htmlxml-2007-r1 to /
 * Building format texmf/fmtutil/format.xmltex.cnf
fmtutil: format directory `/var/tmp/portage/dev-texlive/texlive-htmlxml-2007-r1/work/texmf-var/web2c' does not exist.
 *
 * ERROR: dev-texlive/texlive-htmlxml-2007-r1 failed.


I think this is a problem with my previous tetex configuration or something like that. I tried to create this directories and make

Code:

#FEATURES=keepwork emerge packages


without any luck.[/code]

EDIT: Removing /etc/texmf/texmf.d/00texmf.cnf (orphan file of tetex) do the trick.

Hmm, looks you just found the reason why all texlive packages are still hardmasked, eh? ;)
Or no keyword, to be exactly.

I experienced the same problem and found this:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195815

I don't know yet if this will solve the problem for me, but I synced and I am testing it at the moment. I will post the results. The post is very recent so it seems to be actively worked on.

Hello,
if you switch from another tex distribution to texlive 2007 you must follow this guide :
switching-to-texlive-2007/Howto
and then you can emerge texlive : emerge -pv texlive

Enjoy!

EDIT : Go to the root directory of the overlay, and you will find more information about the package.keywords :
Quote:
aballier: add sample package.keywords file for stable users

It's here for_stable_users/package.keywords.texlive

EDIT 2 : Alexis has been writting a new how-to : http://dev.gentoo.org/~aballier/migrationhowto.xml and now it is not necessary anymore to complete the portage.keywords file(s).

Enjoy !

Why texlive 2007 needs the freetype-1 slot? Is it save to have two version of freetype in system? I read this
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195894 but don't understand.
