That looks very much like a point to me ... we copy some scripts, but nobody
else does, because we're supposed to run texlinks? Just moved the
latex/pdflatex wrappers away and ran texlinks. Seems to work fine.
So texlive's INSTALL should look like this:
default_install &&
texlinks -f "$INSTALL_ROOT/usr/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf"
"$INSTALL_ROOT/usr/bin/" &&
ln -svf mf $INSTALL_ROOT/usr/bin/mf-nowin
My only headache is about $INSTALL_ROOT and finding (the right) texlinks
binary at that point. But $INSTALL_ROOT should be gone if castfs was
universal, eh? (Generally, I'd rather see INSTALL_ROOT support only for
basesystem spells ... before one has a runnable chroot to work in.)
Alrighty then,
Thoma.
